What is the HOPE Conference?

Building Families

Adoption is a faith journey for many couples that are seeking God’s plan for building their families. The HOPE Conference is making a difference in the lives of these families.

Through this Gospel-Centered conference, we are engaging individuals and families in adoption and caring for children in need of families by offering education, support and encouragement. At this conference families are connecting with others as they walk their journey of faith.
