85% of all of children in the inner city come from single parent
households. Many of these women were merely teenagers when
they gave birth to their first child. By the time they reach their midtwenties
it is not uncommon to witness this same Mom with several
children and multiple fathers, who statistically are minimally involved
in family life. Children are often bounced through relatives, day care
and friends merely for the family unit to survive. As urban workers
we are not the Savior, healer or bondage breaker, only Christ is.
Yet, relationship is a very powerful mechanism for change. This
workshop shows how to reach out and minister to the whole family,
children AND their parents.
