A Decade of Memories

Navy Schrock, our Director of Ministry Engagement was featured on Advancing the Mission podcast - a production of County Line Church of God, and a partner church of New Mercies Ministries.

Recently, we’ve been getting more calls from parents who are homeless. These parents face the challenge of trying to find housing, employment, and childcare, all at once. 
Where would you start? 
How do you attend a job interview or work if you have a child with you? 
How do you afford housing or childcare without a job? 
This was the situation that a mom of a 15-month-old girl found herself in. One of our newly approved Host Families jumped right in and offered to host the little girl. And three other families have come alongside this Host Family to help cover day hosting and respite needs! Mom has found two jobs and is working hard to find housing and childcare, knowing that she has the time and space to do so while her little girl is in a safe place, loved, and cared for. 
Join us in praying for this mom, and the many others, who face numerous challenges and limited resources as they try to care for their little ones.

New Mercies Ministries hosted a volunteer and donor appreciation event on February 3, 2023, to celebrate 10 years of family preservation ministry in northeast Indiana.
On Friday, February 3, 2023, New Mercies Ministries celebrated 10 years of family preservation work by hosting an event on the campus of Headwaters Church, on Wells Street in Fort Wayne, in the newly renovated chapel. Bonnie Doolittle, Founder and Executive Director of New Mercies Ministries recognized the 153+ volunteers from 37 churches in the area that served 676 children and parents over the last 10 years. Special recognition was given to volunteers and donors as well as the pioneers of the family preservation movement in northeast Indiana which started on February 3, 2013; those pioneers are Kim Plattner, John Suciu and Troy Schrock, all of whom were in attendance and guests of honor at the event. Dinner was served followed by a time of worship, a keynote address by Greg Byman, senior pastor at St. Joe Community Church. Live music was provided by Daniel Gruber on cello, Ellen Ford on piano and vocalist and Merrit Dusseau vocalist. A special thanks to Nicole Capriglione of Capriglione Creations for her work in providing one-of-a-kind, handmade pottery for 5+ year volunteers.
New Mercies Ministries offers short-term child hosting and family coaching during times of parental crisis. Families may seek help with situations such as homelessness, hospitalization, mental health crises, domestic violence, drug/alcohol rehabilitation, and incarceration. Parents can self-refer or may be referred by social service agencies, homeless shelters, hospitals, drug treatment centers, prisons, schools, police stations, etc. The organization works quickly to match children with screened, trained, and approved volunteer Host Families. Parents voluntarily request care for their children and maintain full custody while they seek to restore stability while they walk alongside a volunteer Family Coach who closely monitors the hosting of children. The ministry has a 99.5% reunification rate.

What is Family Preservation?
Family preservation is a term that refers to the ways in which we can keep families together and help them thrive. Childwelfare.gov defines Family Preservation services as “...short-term, family-focused services designed to assist families in crisis by improving parenting and family functioning while keeping children safe.”. 
Why is Family Preservation so Important? 
The family is the basic unit of society and the foundation upon which our lives are built. Family preservation is the process of strengthening families so they can stay together and thrive. It is a proactive approach that helps families identify and address the issues that put them at risk of separating. There are many reasons why family preservation is necessary. It equips parents with the tools to maintain their stability and independence and connects them in relationships that many times become like surrogate family. FP significantly reduces social isolation for vulnerable families, improving mental and physical health, child welfare, and the social emotional wellbeing of the entire family unit. Positive impacts on children’s academic success due to increased family cohesion and stability are measurable. Family preservation also has positive impacts on the community, such as reducing crime and improving economic stability. Families that are together are more likely to be successful in their pursuits and to contribute to the community in positive ways. 
Family preservation services can be implemented in our community through a variety of programs and ministries. These include family support services, family counseling, and respite care. New Mercies Ministries currently falls under the umbrella of respite care and support services, in the family preservation arena. NMM offers short-term hosting services for children in safe, loving, approved volunteer host family homes, while their parents seek to restore stability with the guidance of a volunteer family coach. New Mercies is also collaborative, meaning we harness and coordinate the resources of existing community agencies to bring supportive connections within the reach of parents. Recently, we have also initiated a post-hosting mentoring program, Rooted Together, for parents looking to strengthen their walk of faith through discipleship and accountability. 
The importance of family preservation cannot be understated. By working to preserve families, we are working to build a stronger, healthier community for everyone.

The Importance of FP

What is Family Preservation and why is it so important?

Here at New Mercies, we are thankful for the difference that you, our faithful volunteers, churches, staff, and financial partners are making, for lives that you are changing through God’s work, and for the way that you keep showing up for vulnerable families in Northeast Indiana. So many needs have been met in ways that are difficult to describe, and the ministry would not continue without you. Because of your support, vulnerable families continue to be reached with Gospel-centered love and care. Thank You!
 For almost 10 years now, God has been using generous partners like you to provide holistic, Gospel-centered care for Northeast Indiana families. You have empowered volunteers to serve with safe housing and supportive connections by helping us to develop a sustainable structure that fuels Gospel-focused ministry.
While numbers give a glimpse of God’s work, we know that the true impact is best told in testimonies. During the month of November, we interviewed many so that you could see God’s hand work through the ministry. You can watch them below.

Year End 2022

St. Joseph Community Health Foundation Grant 
Press Release 
June 1, 2022
New Mercies Ministries is delighted to announce that the St. Joseph Community Health Foundation recently awarded a generous grant of $25,000.00 to assist in funding our Family Coach Manager position. The Family Coach Manager oversees the work of volunteer Family Coaches, who facilitate the relationship between the parents and the host family during a hosting. The Family Coach Manager enables Family Coaches to effectively and appropriately 1) support the host family and ensure the well-being of the children in care and 2) provide support and mentorship to the parents. In addition to supervisory tasks, the Family Coach Manager will also provide coaching to supplement the volunteer Family Coach team when appropriate. This position is now partially funded by this grant from the St. Joseph Community Health Foundation, allowing us to continue providing accountability and compassionate coaching to parents in need of support.
Kenyetta Starks, a mother of three, chose New Mercies for her infant twins when she found herself socially isolated, suffering from postpartum depression, and struggling to support her young family. Now, a year later, Kenyetta is part of a thriving community of supporters, including her family coach, host family, and other volunteers on the New Mercies team. She shares that she has experienced the love of God in a new way. “I just see God working through my healing,” she says. “It took a whole lot of prayer, a whole lot of patience, and just some extra help.”
Without this generous funding from the St. Joseph Community Health Foundation, parents like this young mother would be left without crucial support, unprepared to nurture her twins or provide a stable home, and too overwhelmed to parent well. We would like to thank the St. Joseph Community Health Foundation for their support that allows New Mercies Ministries to serve our community.

"[New Mercies] feels like the church doing what we’re supposed to: coming alongside...relationship." -Joel, resource team and family coach volunteer

Anniversary

Celebrating One Year of New Mercies Ministries!

Kenyetta remembers the fear racing through her mind as she arrived at the New Mercies office to place her infant twin boys with their host family for a couple of days.
<blockquote>"I'm just like, 'What am I doing? I'm giving my kids to some total strangers'...but I was like, 'I'm going to put it in God's hands. He knows what's best, and I need the help.'" </blockquote>
That day, Kenyetta met Flora, the twins' host mom, and an unexpected friendship flourished.

Community Through Connection: Kenyetta + Flora's Story

Two afternoons each week, Sheri Walz climbs into her car and drives to a New Mercies host home. There, she picks up and safely delivers her three-year-old passenger to the little lady's grandparents for family time.
"Each ride is so different," Sheri says, smiling. "Sometimes we sing all the way, sometimes she is sharing about what she did with the host family, and sometimes she falls sound asleep within a mile. My favorite part is that we start the drive with prayer, and she will let me know if I forgot someone—or the dog."

Sheri Walz logo

After learning about New Mercies, Sheri knew she wanted to serve, but she wasn't sure where to plug in. She decided to try transportation, and fell in love with the role. Sometimes, the host family's schedule bumps up against the needs of hosted children, and that's where Sheri comes in. "If I can help transport a child from their home to a doctor’s appointment or to school," she says, "I will do it in a heartbeat."
<blockquote>"It’s not about competition, it’s not about prestige—it’s about helping others. You can just be a part of the body...That’s my favorite part."</blockquote>
Sheri has found joy and purpose in her time behind the wheel, with many sweet moments catching her by surprise. She remembers taking a teenaged girl to A Hope Center, and the unique opportunity that followed.
"On
the way back," Sheri says, "she was telling me that she grew up in Chicago. She told me
that this one gas station [in Fort Wayne] provided her favorite chips and pickles. I was able
to stop by that gas station and get her her chips and pickles. I love that. It
meant something to her."

Sheri believes that thriving on the volunteer transportation team takes flexibility, patience, and a readiness to seize the moment.
"I drove a little girl to school and no one knew there was a two-hour delay," she remembers. Where she could have spent the moment in frustration, Sheri chose to see opportunity. "I was able to take her out to breakfast and spend some time with her."
Sheri loves serving with New Mercies, because each role meets a unique and crucial need.
"It all works together," she says. "I love it, because nobody stands out. It’s not about competition, it’s not about prestige—it’s about helping others. You can just be a part of the body...That’s my favorite part."

Many Roles, One Ministry

Did you know that a New Mercies relationship actually begins before a child walks through the front door of her host family’s home?
When New Mercies parents find themselves in a hard place—facing hospitalization, suddenly homeless, or another critical situation—their first step is to contact the support line. That’s where compassionate volunteers like Jill Hire step in to answer the call.
Over the last year, Jill has often been the first voice a parent hears when reaching out to New Mercies. She’s a member of the support line team, which takes crucial family information and then helps locate a suitable host family.

Jill Hire

When she learned about New Mercies, Jill says she was “instantly inspired by the mission, purpose, and drive to support, empower, and build relationships with families—all while showing Christ’s love."
Jill's favorite part of her role is helping connect families with a host home. “I love to hear the sound of relief in a mom, dad, or grandma’s voice,” she says, “when I tell them a host family has offered to provide a safe place for their child while they handle whatever challenge they are facing.”
The greatest challenge comes when the solution doesn’t appear according to her own timeline, Jill says. “I want to find a solution right away,” she shares. “I want a host family lined up, and I want the parent to sleep well that night knowing everything is taken care of.” But, she adds, “God continuously reminds me to wait for His timing.” 
<blockquote>“I love to hear the sound of relief in a mom, dad, or grandma’s voice, when I tell them a host family has offered to provide a safe place for their child while they handle whatever challenge they are facing.”</blockquote>
God’s timing, while never predictable, always provides, Jill says. Once, the volunteer team had a multitude of hostings needing to happen at the same time, all with little kids requiring car seats. “The team was discussing how we were going to handle the lack of car seats in the resource room with the abundance of hostings occurring.” 
Jill says that while the team was meeting to discuss how to handle the shortage, “I received a text from the host [mom],” Jill says. “She happened to be at the store and felt the nudge to buy her own car seat for the upcoming hosting, rather than using one from the resource room. She had absolutely no idea that the team was in the midst of problem-shooting how to deal with the lack of car seats! God always provides!”
Jill says she has really enjoyed her flexible schedule while serving with New Mercies. “I have the flexibility to make my own schedule when it works for me to volunteer,” she says. “Some weeks, it is only once, other weeks, it is five days a week. There is always someone to cover if I am busy with my family obligations or work schedule.”
Interested in learning more about becoming a support line volunteer? In Jill’s words: “If you feel the nudge, just do it! God wants to use you and your talents for a greater purpose!”

Answering the Call

Unmet expectations – we've all experienced them. A job that doesn't match what we had hoped for when hired. A carefully planned vacation that has to be cancelled. A long-term relationship ends abruptly. We wonder if we did enough. We wonder what we did wrong. We wonder why life can be so messy. 
When we enter into the ministry of hospitality, it can be easy to set our sights on our own definitions of success, only to have those expectations dashed by a different reality. When reality doesn't align with our expectations, the easiest response is often frustration, doubt, or even defeat. 
But what if we redefined success? What if success was less about results and more about simply showing up? John 1:14 tells us that "The Word became flesh and blood, and moved into the neighborhood" (MSG). The incarnation of Jesus as a person tells us that presence matters to the God of the universe. The world often models that success equals results – we must produce. Jesus simply asks that we show up in obedience and be with.
Volunteer family coaches Jeanne and Mike Belth agree.

Belths logo

"We need to define success as when we are faithful to do what we ought to do," says Mike. "We have to recognize that many times, things aren’t going to turn out the way we want, but...we can actually succeed every time if we go out and serve the way the Lord would have us serve, and then leave it to God to do the work."
<blockquote>“We can actually succeed every time if we go out and serve the way the Lord would have us serve, and then leave it to God to do the work.”</blockquote>
Because Jesus moved into hard, complicated places, Christ followers are compelled to do the same. We can move into messy situations, because that is what has been done for us. We don't have all of the answers, but we can walk alongside those around us trusting that God is always moving.
"I’ve got to remember that it’s God doing the work," Jeanne says. "He’s not going to mess things up. I may, but he won’t."

Redefining Success

Dear Friends,
Thank you! As 2021 ends, and the inaugural season of New Mercies Ministries comes to a close, I am overcome with gratitude. Amid the ups and downs of beginning a new ministry, I look in the rear-view mirror in awe of what I see. Our ministry is surrounded by faithful volunteers, churches, staff, and financial partners. So many have stepped up and filled needs in ways that are difficult to describe, and the ministry would not be here without you.

Donation

A year ago, we were serving our neighbors through Safe Families, not knowing the challenges or great blessings God had in store. On July 1st, 2021, we stepped out in faith, becoming an independent organization. And through you, God enabled us to stand, steadied our first steps, and continues to provide for all our needs. No one could have imagined how God would take that hardship and use it for good. But He did, and we give Him all the glory. 
Because of your support through this transition, New Mercies Ministries volunteers have served in 135 hostings in the last five months alone. We now confidently carry on the work God prepared for us to do when hostings in Northeast Indiana began in 2013. Including our past years’ work with Safe Families, a cumulative total of 397 children have now been served through 993 hostings in Northeast Indiana as of November’s end.

While numbers give us glimpses of God’s work, we know that the true impact is seen in the personal story. Just this week, we heard from a parent of twins who were hosted in the past by a host family who also had twins. This mom struggled with keeping her kids safe. She was so discouraged by her situation that she considered placing the 5-year-old twins for adoption. Throughout the hosting, her host family and family coach continued to encourage her without judgement. She made the decision to continue to parent her twins and long after the hosting ended, her host family is still just a phone call away.

November training

You have been a means of God’s grace to this ministry and to the families that are served by it. Whether you have volunteered, supported, been on staff, or have been a financial partner with New Mercies Ministries, we are so grateful for you!
We still have a long way to go to meet our 2022 budget needs, but we know from looking in that rear-view mirror that God will provide exactly what we need to serve our most vulnerable neighbors.
Thank you for your support during our most difficult season. 
With gratitude,
Bonnie S. Doolittle Founder and Executive Director

In Awe of God's Faithfulness (and yours!)

Recently, one of our supported moms shared on social media her experience with New Mercies and the family that hosted her children. What an incredible testimony to the power of friendship, vulnerability, and radical hospitality: 
"There was a time when I couldn’t care for my babies. So much I’ve never said out loud because I was ashamed of my thoughts. I saw a video of a lady adopting a baby and having an open adoption with the birth mother so that she could still have a relationship with her baby, and it made me think of Rochelle Metz because she is one of the reasons I was able to continue on being a mother. Not very many people know that she took the twins in for a short while so I could figure out my life. 
I was having what people would call a midlife crisis at just 24 years old. I was so terrified letting [the twins] leave with a complete stranger [to be hosted], and I remember talking to them on the phone that same night thinking to myself...they sound so different, and that’s because I had never heard their voice through a phone and my heart fell out of my body! I immediately started sobbing, and Rochelle took the phone and just hearing her voice calmed all of my nerves. She knew exactly what to say, and I just knew they were safe. 
<blockquote>“I just knew they were safe.” </blockquote>
I was considering adoption because I felt like I could not possibly love them enough, I could not keep them safe, I was too worried about paying the bills and not completely going crazy at work because it was so stressful. I just knew I’d be working for the rest of my life, missing all the best moments of their life, and I knew they needed a family that could give them what I couldn’t. So, I started meeting couples with this adoption agency...the last couple I met was just the sweetest couple and I knew I found the twins a home.

Metz family

After a few days, the lady called me, and we met up again and she was confused. She and her family were talking about how someone like me, that seemed to have all the right kind of love and concerns, would want to give her children up because I was a great mother. With an honest heart, I couldn’t explain why. After talking to Rochelle about what I wanted to do, I couldn’t go through with the adoption. She made sure that I knew her and her family would always be there for the twins, for us—and they have. 
I always thought I had it hard being a new mom of twins doing it alone, but talking to someone that knew what it was like really helped. I appreciate everything you and your family have done for us! We love you <a href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/twinmom?__eep__=6&amp;__cft__%5B0%5D=AZW0ncHX9K8y2SomgAqJGs371G8VClKffRaMazKVPvTUSPm34T63lsT9jl6oXfjGTKFBH_ku73kl7mEEEzyKmo0cQpHwFi3Cfbk4uBT1-97ERfc3BBHMlm4xPeGQxEvqBVw&amp;__tn__=*NK-R" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">#Twinmom</a>”*

Hope Along the Journey

One of the most beautiful parts of coming alongside vulnerable families in our communities is watching God form special friendships between volunteers and kids or parents served. Few stories show this as clearly as one that happened this summer. 
The Studys, one of our Host Families, were caring for a girl (who we’ll call T) and her siblings while their mom was working through challenging life circumstances. The Study family took T to summer youth group at Blackhawk during her stay with them since she was old enough to attend. 
T struggled with feeling different from the other kids at youth group. Her background of being raised in an environment where she’d seen fatherlessness and other difficult things firsthand was such a stark contrast from the lives of many of the kids at youth group. T wanted to fit in, but sometimes she would come home to the Study’s after church and cry because of the loneliness she was experiencing. But one thing kept her going back to youth group: the welcoming heart and friendship of a girl named Mattie. 
Thirteen-year-old Mattie, without any prompting, introduced herself to T near the beginning of the summer, and from that time they formed a special friendship. Whenever T came to youth group, the girls spent time together. What began simply with a welcoming heart led to a caring relationship and belonging. 
Mattie’s heart for helping families in similar situations to T’s extended to her birthday party where she organized a resource drive of donations to be given in place of gifts to help other families needing support. Hundreds of dollars' worth of gift cards, diapers, wipes, and other items were raised at Blackhawk Church thanks to the efforts of Mattie and her family. 
One of the most beautiful pictures we see of Jesus is how He welcomes those who are different and often outcast due to their past or social status. Mattie’s example of welcoming and forming a friendship with T illustrates the beauty of the gospel. Whether it’s the new girl in youth group, your neighbor next door, or the family member who’s struggling, part of being a Christ-follower is that we’re called to look for the lonely and show them an open and welcome love. 
<blockquote>Living for Jesus involves big sacrifices at times, but often it may be as simple as having an eye and a heart for those who need a friend. Just like Mattie and T’s friendship, we all have people in our lives who need someone to care. Will you be the first to respond? </blockquote>

A Call To Friendship

This summer, Pine Hills Church held “Engage my City” events to extend Christ’s love to the surrounding community. During that time, they collected over 7,000 diapers, 840 pull-ups, and over 500 packages of wipes to give to New Mercies! 
Also thank you to this church partner for hosting us on their “Summer At The Hills Podcast” with Mike and Paige. <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep-008-caring-with-mercy/id1572713323?i=1000531678454" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Click here to listen to "Caring with Mercy."</a>
