COMP ACT®
TO UNVEIL NEW RESOURCE

We are excited to announce the soon release of a new church ministry resource from COMPACT®  called CompaCare .
 
CompaCare  is a compassion care system to help churches minister to vulnerable children and families in their own communities. It is also designed to partner with COMPACT's Foster Care Placement Services.  CompaCare  is built from evidence-based data. Although it was originated to first assist foster care ministry, it's flexible design can assist church ministry on behalf of vulnerable others. 
 
The CompaCare  Manual by COMPACT ® will be introduced at the 57th General Council of the Assemblies of God in Anaheim, CA on August 7-11, 2017. It will soon be available for purchase through MyHealthyChurch.com or GospelPublishing.com. We will publish a link to purchase the manual when it is released.
 
The CompaCare  Manual informs and provides the care system. It is supported by CompaCare  Certificate Trainings that further educate and empower church leaders and key volunteers in the process. 

CompaCare ™ Certificate Trainings will be offered nationally, regionally, and locally. The first national training will be September 25-27, 2017 in Hot Springs, AR.Visit CompaCare.com to learn more.
 
CompaCare™ is a strategic resource export of COMPACT®  to more broadly redeem the fatherless and family through compassionate action.
 
May the LORD add his favor to this and other ventures to redeem the fatherless and family through compassionate action!
 
Blessings,
