Deb Presson, a parishioner at American Martyrs Church in Manhattan Beach, wrote four articles highlighting adoption and foster care and organized a parish information night for prospective parents.
An adoptive parent herself, Presson said that she especially wanted to highlight foster care, in the hope that more families consider it.
“There are good kids out there that need a home, and our community is the one to provide that,” she said. “It’s important for the Church to open people’s eyes to this segment of those who are in need.”
