Hope Tree is The Vine’s Adoption and Foster care ministry. Its mission is to create a church culture of awareness, service, and support for families of adoption and foster care. We want to be a congregation that is known in our community for supporting children from “hard places.”

Care Portal

Care Portal is a tool offered to churches so they can meet the needs of at-risk kids and families in our community. Requests are emailed to our Care Portal team, and we have been meeting those needs 2-3 times a year. This ministry is growing.

Vijiji Home of Light

Hope Tree has partnered with the Vijiji Home of Light, an orphanage in Nairobi, Kenya, for approximately 15 years.  The Vine supports Vijiji with mission trips, orphan sponsorships, prayer, and financial gifts. This year our church community donated about $100,000 to Vijiji so they can build out the home's second floor. Watch for Short Term Mission trip opportunities to Kenya.
