Finding Forever @ King Street Church
Nov 16 @ 9:00 am – 12:00 pm

“Finding Forever”: Don’t miss this inspiring story of resilience, connection, and unconditional love. A young couple felt called to care for orphans but didn’t anticipate the direction that would take – to Darien. By age 17, Darien had spent 2,189 days in foster care, endured two failed adoptions, and lived in a detention center before a simple “yes” changed everything. The Karenbauer family is coming to Chambersburg as the featured speakers at this National Adoption Month event sponsored by the Adoption Coalition of Franklin County and King Street Church. Breakfast is provided.
November 16, 2024, 9:00am to 12:00am
