It is truly amazing how God works!  Whenever He reveals his plan in people’s lives Jeremiah 29:11 always pops into my head,  ^“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”  At a time where I was in a transitioning period I prayed that God would reveal His plan for me by closing certain doors and opening others.  By letting go of what I thought my plan should be for my life, I was shown that His plan for me was much greater than I could have imagined. 

I have always had a heart for children and desired to have a job working directly with them; particularly with children that have been abused and/or neglected.  Before coming to YFC, I was in a position where I worked with foster children but often felt that something was missing.  Then, God showed me that he had bigger plans for me and placed me at Tacoma YFC as a foster care case manager.  Now, I not only get to do what I love everyday, I also get to fellowship with people who share my same excitement for the Lord!  The staff at YFC is very supportive of each other and it is encouraging to pray with co-workers about anything and everything.  Furthermore, our foster homes are full of parents who not only love the Lord, but love and care for every child that come into their homes.  The foster care ministry at Tacoma YFC is definitely one of a kind and I feel blessed to be apart of it!
