""This is an intimate sort of relationship- you have been with us every step of the way- before and during our “expecting” then for our boys arrival and now through the growing joys, pains, laughs and tears. Thank you!""

Walking With Families at Every Stage of the Foster & Adoption Journey
At One Heart Family Ministries, we believe foster and adoptive families should never walk alone. Whether you're exploring how to become a foster parent in the Greater St. Louis Area or you're already on the journey and need ongoing support, we're here to equip, encourage, and serve.
We offer a full circle of care built around four pillars:
🧲 Recruit: Raising Awareness, Inspiring Action
The need is great—and the laborers are few.
Not everyone is called to foster or adopt, but every person can play a role in caring for vulnerable children. One Heart partners with churches, ministries, and individuals across the Greater St. Louis area to raise awareness about the needs in the foster care system. Together, we’re building a faith-based foster care movement that welcomes children with love, compassion, and lasting support. Through prayer, giving, volunteering, and church partnerships, there are countless ways to stand in the gap for kids in need.
Your “yes” might look like opening your home as a foster parent, supporting another family through meals and childcare, or rallying your church to create a wraparound ministry. Whatever your role, you are part of God’s call to care for children and families in need.
