Maddie's Story

The story of a child in foster care is always deeply personal and unique, shaped by circumstances often out of their control. Some children find their way back into the arms of their birth parents, others are welcomed into the embrace of new families through adoption, and still, others wait for years, longing for the day they will have a place to call home.
Today, we have the privilege of hearing from one of Pathways' summer interns, who bravely shares her journey. Her story is not just about the challenges she faced but about the unwavering pursuit of her parents, who never stopped fighting to bring her home. It’s a testament to the power of love, resilience, and faith.
This young woman’s story is living proof that no child is forgotten. Even in the most difficult situations, hope endures, and families can be restored. Whether through adoption or reunification, God works through these stories, guiding each step, opening hearts, and creating new beginnings.
