Founders and Directors of Kingdom Care

Julius and Shanda Karow married in 2011 & knew that their passion together would be for the Orphan. His grandparents adopted Julius and knew the importance of family reunification, having a strong support system, and keeping siblings together. Shanda grew up in a mainly single-parent home with her siblings and her mom, who became a licensed mental health therapist and worked with children under CPS care. Together, Julius and Shanda became foster parents in 2012. Over the years, they have fostered over 25 children and were blessed to become the forever family to 4 of those children through adoption. Throughout their journey's highs and lows, they knew their Heavenly Father was guiding their path, but they were always searching for people who could support & understand all that their family was facing. This is the passion behind Kingdom Care: no family would face this journey alone or be without a supportive group of people to rally alongside them as they say “Yes” to caring for the orphan. Their Journey has led them to the Orphan Care Pastor's roles at Risen Nation Church, where they serve a congregation devoted to emptying the Foster care system as well as Executive Directors of Kingdom Care.
