At RISING Church, we partner with Live the Promise and are focused on increasing the number of quality foster families and decreasing the number of foster children without homes.

Partners in India
Our partners live and work in Northern India in an area that is considered one of the poorest and most unreached states in the country. They do Business As Mission, and have started a textile business where they train and employ women in an impoverished area by providing a safe work environment and fair wages. Through the business they have the opportunity to share and teach about the love of Jesus, pray for their employees, provide free child care, and offer nutrition and health benefits. Their heart is to see the Lord move through Kingdom minded business in a spiritual and holistic way amongst the least reached.

The Path Project
The Path Project partners with families, schools, churches and businesses to help children and teenagers in at-risk communities close the achievement gap and find the right path for their lives – spiritually, academically, and socially. Our hope is that every child who is part of The Path Project will: know and follow God’s plan for their life (spiritual), graduate from high school with a plan for their future (academic) and become productive members of society who give back to their community (social). To accomplish our mission the Path Project operates community centers where we offer programs such as after-school homework help, literacy-rich opportunities, mentoring, and soccer (with our FCA Soccer partnership).
