Lost & Found: Lost in a System, Found by the Church

Foster the City | Dave Darjany

What happens when churches step into the foster care crisis with compassion, courage, and action? Lives change. Families are restored. Children find hope. ❤️ This week on Lost and Found, we sit down with Dave Darjany from Foster the City to talk about the powerful role churches can play in supporting children in foster care, encouraging foster families, and creating communities where vulnerable kids are truly seen and cared for. This conversation is a reminder that every church can make a difference — whether through fostering, mentoring, respite care, or simply showing up for families in need.

Bishop Ed Smith from Nehemiah Project LA Ministries is helping young adults find direction, stability, and purpose by providing the resources and encouragement they need to build a new future. When someone believes in you at the right moment, everything can change. 💛 🎙 Hear the full conversation on the podcast: https://lostandfound.show 📩 esmith@nehemiahprojectla.org #LostAndFound #FosterCare #AgingOut #LosAngeles #CommunityImpact #HopeInAction

A Passion to Serve People in Need | Mission Rise

Big changes are happening in Los Angeles around homeless support—and the impact could be significant. Nearly one-third of the people currently in long-term supportive housing could potentially be affected by these shifts, putting many at risk of returning to the streets. Behind these numbers are real people—neighbors who have worked hard to regain stability and dignity. Moments like this remind us how important thoughtful solutions and community support truly are. 💛 🎙 Hear the full conversation and what it could mean for our community: https://lostandfound.show #LostAndFound #Homelessness #LosAngeles #CommunityCare #HopeInAction
