We're drawing closer to Stand Sunday, an incredibly important day on which communities come together to uplift and support vulnerable children and families in dire need. Bishop Aaron Blake, Sr. initiated this day in 2002, and it has blossomed into a comprehensive nationwide effort to fight against the neglect and abuse prevalent in our society.
We hope you and your church will participate in this day of impact this coming November. Whether you honor Stand Sunday on its established day, the second Sunday of November, or pick a different date that fits your church's needs, we're ready to assist with a wide range of free resources, available on our Facebook page. It's a chance for all of us to come together and make a lasting difference.

"Am I Special" Children's Book
Am I special? Is a wonderful illustrated book that teaches kids about the amazing world of adoption. It focuses on one day in the life of a precious little girl named Josie. Josie is five years old and learning new things every day. She learned from her family that ordinary things around the house are "special." After discovering what special means, she wonders if she is special because she was adopted. She finds out that she wasn't abandoned; she was chosen.

Breaker Conference 2024
Many believers are saved but often do not walk in freedom through wholeness in their spirit, soul, and body. The Breaker Conference aims to shine a light on the truth of God’s Word regarding identity, wholeness, freedom, and purpose. The “Breaker” anointing is the power of Jesus (the Breaker) to instantly break off anything He died on the cross for us to be free from. And many times, we don't even realize it!
“And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 8:32
Who is this conference for?
Singles, married, parents, adoptive parents, Foster Parents, grandparents, Prayer Warriors, Business Owners, pastors, spiritual leaders—anyone who wants to walk in freedom, body, soul, and spirit wholeness.
