Lifeline exists to equip the church to manifest the gospel to vulnerable children.
Adoption
The love of Christ, through the love of a family.
Since 1981, Lifeline has connected vulnerable children with Christ-centered families. Through our international, domestic and foster care adoption programs, we can guide you through the entire process.
Pregnancy Support
Another life depends on you.
Free, confidential, and no-pressure services to help YOU decide if adoption is right for you, the mom, and your baby.
Foster Care & Family Preservation
Stand in the gap with kids for families.
Mobilize your church to provide short-term care for kids while ministering to their birth parents.
Global Orphan Care
The love of Christ, through the love of a family.
James 1:27 identifies God’s plan for the church. Lifeline exists to equip and mobilize the church to protect and care for the most vulnerable human life, children.
Church-Based Programs
Equip your church to serve the vulnerable.
Your church is called to minister to vulnerable children, women and families, but you may not know exactly how to get started. That’s where Lifeline can help!
Parent Coaching
Transformative techniques and tools for parents.
Available to ANY family, Parent Coaching is designed for parents who are navigating challenging or confusing behaviors from their children, and desire to see positive change in their child and themselves through new parenting techniques.
Therapy and Counseling Services
Nurture. Heal. Grow.
Lifeline’s Counseling team believes in facilitating health in individuals and families so they can flourish.
Bridge Education Services
Science + Faith = Power
Every child is created in the image of God, but that doesn’t mean they all learn the same way. In just 3 simple steps, you can begin your child’s Individual Educational Therapy plan. Bridge Educational Services is a customized approach to learning that is focused on equipping, strengthening and shepherding kids relationally, academically and spiritually.

four ways to partner
with Lifeline
Get Informed
Learn about how you and your church can serve vulnerable children, women, families and teens. Take our interest survey to find out where to start. In just a few questions, we'll have you connected to a Lifeline representative that can help ensure that you are properly informed on how Lifeline can help you serve.
Get Informed
Be Inspired
You might already have an idea of the vulnerable population that God has called you to. Here's where we tell you the stories of all God is doing through our partner churches and adoptive families.
Be Inspired
Get Involved
This is where it gets good. You've been informed. You are definitely inspired. Now, it's time for action. Getting involved is where the James 1:27 Mission is lived out. This is where individuals can learn how to become Lifeline Frontline at their church. This is where a church body goes all in to one or more of our ministry resources. This is where a family called to adoption begins the process. This is where God begins to transform lives.
Get Involved
Get Invested
Unlike many nonprofits, Lifeline has never relied on government funding. Instead, we partner with churches and generous private donors to sustain and grow our ministry. But to continue this work—and to meet the increasing need—we must build a stronger, more sustainable financial foundation.
