Adoption & Foster Care at Mercy Hill

Building Families The Way God Builds His

What We’re About

Mercy Hill Students Service in Greensboro, NC

Every child deserves a safe, loving family where they can thrive. At Mercy Hill, we’re committed to helping families step into this call, creating homes for vulnerable children through adoption, foster care, and support roles. Our mission is to build families rooted in God’s love, grace, and purpose—families that mirror the way God welcomes each of us.

We’re reaching for a big vision: 200 Mercy Hill families stepping into adoption or foster care by 2025. Why? Because every child should know the love of a family, and we believe our church has been called to help make this a reality. Adoption, foster care, and support roles are all part of this journey, and we invite you to join us in making a lasting impact.

Our vision is simple yet powerful: to see families and individuals provide gospel-centered care to vulnerable children through four pathways—adoption, foster care, supporting families as a Rope Holder, and serving as a Guardian ad Litem.

Check Out What's Happening

Adoption

Adoption is a powerful expression of God’s love, welcoming a child into a forever family. Whether you’re considering domestic, international, or foster-to-adopt, our team is here to walk alongside you.

Explore Adoption

Foster Care

Open your home to a child in need of a safe, loving environment while they await reunification with their family. Foster care provides vital support during a time of transition.

Learn About Foster Care

Rope Holders

Not everyone can foster or adopt, but everyone can help. As a “Rope Holder,” you can support families by assisting with tasks like grocery runs, transportation, yard work, or even licensed respite care. Think of it as being the support system every family needs.

Become a Rope Holder

Guardian ad Litem

Stand up for children in the court system by volunteering as a Guardian ad Litem. As a trained advocate, you’ll work with the courts to ensure each child’s needs are met during legal proceedings. This role is an incredible way to make a real difference.
