Dear Editor,
I read with great interest the response letters about adoption that followed Krish Kandiah’s article in December 2022. In particular, Jenny Whalley’s comment that ‘Churches are uniquely positioned to be the support network for these children and their carers. But churches that wholeheartedly and intentionally cultivate this atmosphere in their congregations are actually not that common’ – is incredibly insightful.
My role at Biblical Counselling has been to spearhead research into mapping what meaningful support looks like for Christian parents/carers of care-experienced children in the UK. Earlier this year we launched a report with our findings.
