"We put our hope in the Lord. He is our help and our shield. In Him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in His holy name. Let Your unfailing love surround us, Lord, for our hope is in You alone.
Psalm 33:20-22
What is a Military Star Family?
Liberty Church defines a "Military Star Family" as the immediate family of a United States military member who is assigned on duty away from home. God has purposefully placed Liberty Church in a location primarily comprised of military members and their families. This is no accident. As such, we believe God has called us to support our military families, especially when their Soldier is away from home, whether due to deployment, training, or temporary duty.
Who can sign up to receive support from the church as a Military Star Family?
Any military family (active, reserve, or guard) is eligible to sign up when their service member is called on duty away from home for a period of more than one week.
What happens when I sign up as a Military Star Family?
When you sign up as a Military Star Family, you will fill out an information sheet about your family. Then, the church will assign you a Partner who has successfully completed a background check. Your Partner's goal is to provide support and encouragement while your spouse is away from home. You will also be invited to a monthly lunch or dinner with those involved in the program.
What does a Partner do for my family?
A Partner's mission is to support and encourage you while your spouse is gone. We pray they help you feel welcome in the church, cultivate a loving relationship with you that reflects Christ's love, and practically assist your family. Please utilize your Military Star Family Partner as a loving resource you can call whenever you need something while your spouse is away. If they cannot help you with an issue, they’ll help connect you with someone who can.
What are a Partner’s responsibilities?
Commits to checking in with you via phone call or text at least once a week. We can only effectively care for you when we know what is happening within your family.
Pray faithfully for your family.
Offer to support your family with practical needs that arise. Some ideas include yard maintenance, occasional babysitting, providing meals when someone in your family is sick, and helping with minor home maintenance issues.
What are a Supporter’s responsibilities?
Separate from a Partner assigned to a family, a Supporter volunteers to provide free services, such as those listed above. Please contact Ashley Ashcraft (contact information below) to utilize these services.
