83. Faith in Action: The Church and Foster Care with Vince Smith

In this episode of The ReStoried Podcast, we sit down with Vince Smith, former foster parent and director of Keystone Family Alliance, an organization committed to educating, motivating, and equipping churches across Pennsylvania to care for vulnerable children both locally and globally.Vince shares his journey as a foster parent to 35 children and the heart behind his work with Keystone Family Alliance. He opens up about the alarming needs in the child welfare system and how the church can—and must—respond. As Vince says, “It wasn’t that the church didn’t care. They just had no idea what the need was, and they didn’t know how to take a practical next step.”You’ll learn how Keystone Family Alliance is bridging the gap by creating wraparound Care Communities that offer prayer, resources, and tangible support—keeping foster families involved longer and stronger.Whether you're a church leader, foster parent, or someone who wants to make a difference, this episode will inspire and equip you to take your next faithful step.Episode Highlights: Foster Care Awareness Month Meet Vince SmithKeystone Family Alliance Foster Care & the Church Church MobilizationFind more on Guest:Keystone Family Alliance Keystone Family Alliance on InstagramKeystone Family Alliance on Facebook Email Vince at [email protected] Find More on Hope Bridge:Schedule a coffee date with Nicole!Visit Our Website Follow us on InstagramFollow us on Facebook Foster Our Community Instagram This show has been produced by Adkins Media Co.Learn more about Hope for the Journey TBRI TrainingLearn more about Building Trauma-Informed Spaces with Kim Botto
