Heritage Hills Baptist Church hosting pancake breakfast to support Isaiah 117 House

Heritage Hills Baptist Church is hosting the fourth annual Isaiah 117 Pancake Breakfast on Saturday, Aug. 31 from 7:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m.

The proceeds support Isaiah 117 House, a group dedicated to caring for children as they wait to be placed with foster parents.

When children are removed from their homes out of concern for their safety, they are usually brought to a child welfare services office to await placement. This wait can be a few hours to several days. These children often have nothing with them and are scared, lonely, hungry, and in dirty clothing.

Isaiah 117 provides a comforting home where these children instead can be brought to wait – a place that is safe with friendly and loving volunteers who provide clean clothes, smiles, toys, and snuggly blankets. This space allows children to receive the comfort and care they need while child welfare staff can do the necessary paperwork and identify a good placement.
