Maud Kells Part 1

Stacy’s DeWitt’s astounding ministry to foster children in Ventura and Los Angeles counties began with a simple prayer, “Father, how do you want you use me in this place?” From that point forward God not only placed a burden on her heart fro foster children and foster parents, but also began to open unexpected doors to Stacy and her husband to be able to create the ministry known as James Store House. In this podcast you will hear the amazing story of how James Store House came to be as well as how that ministry continues to minister to foster kids. Stacy DeWitt is down to earth and engaging as she inspires all of us to simply ask, “Father, how would you like to use me in this place?”Resources:Organization: James StorehouseEquipping foster children, aged-out youth, trafficking survivors, and families at risk with critical resources, mentorship, and hope in Christ.Explore how James Storehouse serves the community through emergency provision, prevention initiatives, and long-term mentoring:https://www.jamesstorehouse.org/program-highlightsOpen Table Mentorship ProgramA relational model that surrounds aged-out foster youth with consistent adults for one year, helping them navigate housing, education, and life skills.Connect with James StorehouseWebsite: www.jamesstorehouse.orgFacebook: facebook.com/jamesstorehousecaliforniaInstagram: @jamesstorehouseLinkedIn (Stacy DeWitt): linkedin.com/in/stacy-dewitt
