COMMUNITY CONNECTIONS
the RISE conference
The RISE Conference is a Christian Conference intent on giving Resources, Inspiration, Support and Equipping the Body of Christ to love the orphan in our city, country and world. For those who are considering fostering or adopting a child, for those who are an adoptive or fostering family, or for those who are passionate about leading the charge for orphan care in the Inland Northwest, this RISE Conference is for you.
One full day of teaching, worship, prayer and encouragement to fill your soul and fuel your commitment to live the pure and true religion. Welcome to the official page of the RISE Conference. We hope you make the time to refresh your soul with people of like passion and heart!

Urgent need at life services
Life Services' Maternity Home is still in need of either a live-in Respite to cover every other weekend in exchange for room and board, or 2-3 more couples (preferably) who can be part of a pool and willing to commit to a weekend every other month.
Both persons of a couple are not always needed unless we have a full house. We would need 2 drivers for church on Sundays and if you decided to go for an outing; or if a resident went into labor or needed to go to the hospital, one person is needed to take the sick or laboring resident and the other to stay with the other residents. We have had couples come and the husband can be free to do other things for parts of the weekend when things are quiet at the house. When the house is quiet and there is more than one resident the wife can run errands if needed. We just never leave a man alone with one resident.
Please contact Sharon Hengy, 509-327-0701 or email her at sharon@lifeservices.org for all the information.
