Experiencing Interruptions?

Pure and Undefiled Religion

Pure and Undefiled Religion is a film following the story of the Varvoutis family as they listened to God’s call to become foster parents. We hope that it provides you with a framework and context for what children in the foster care system so often experience.

We're grateful to the Varvoutis family for giving us the opportunity to come and tell their story. Another thanks goes out to the people at Alabama Baptist Children's Homes for the work that so often goes unnoticed. Ultimately, we hope that it leaves you wondering, how can I get involved and change the trajectory of a child's life?
