Springs of Love
The mission of Springs of Love is to raise up more Catholic foster and adoptive families and to support those touched by fostering and adoption through educational programming, small groups, and parish care teams.
The Diocese of Owensboro and Springs of Love Ministry are working together to better support children and families by understanding who among us is currently fostering, has adopted, is discerning a call to foster or adopt, or feels led to support foster and adoptive families.
Springs of Love questionnaire Survey –Your response will help us build community, provide resources, and accompany those answering God’s call to care for vulnerable children. We invite you to prayerfully consider completing this short survey.
Four Springs of Love chapters are established in the Diocese of Owensboro serving different geographic regions. These chapters are made up of volunteers, who desire to support children and families involved in foster care and adoption.
To contact your local chapter please reach out by email. Each local chapter is lead by lay leaders from local parishes.
