THANK YOU for your support of Faithful Fathering. You have blessed us across 25 years of Encouraging and Equipping Dads to Be Faithful Fathers. Our vision is for every home to have a faithful father, leading in Christ. As we reflect on our history and look ahead, we praise God for how He has worked through Faithful Fathering to help thousands of dads turn their hearts toward Him and to their children.
We covet your continued support spiritually through prayers for the ministry, and physically in helping develop a broader network of churches, men and women that are passionate about fathers in family. Please email rick@faithfulfathering.org or call 281.491.DADS(3237) if you would like to meet with Rick Wertz to discuss ways to support Faithful Fathering.
The Board of Directors has approved a $240K budget for this fiscal year – October 2025 through September 2026. As you know, we are dedicated to offering our strategy free of charge to churches. Due to this commitment, Faithful Fathering relies on individual giving for approximately 70% of the operating budget.
Faithful Fathering also humbly asks for your partnership through this giving season as we launch our 26th year in ministry fulfilling our mission for fathers and family. Specifically, for your consideration, we will be allocating resources to:
- Video Production of Three Studies for the Seasons of Fathering book - $2500
- Underwrite Regional Events - Leadership Breakfasts/Luncheons - $1500/event
- Support Monthly Operations moving the mission forward- $20K/month
Please consider including Faithful Fathering in your Giving Tuesday plans, End of Year gift considerations or Legacy Giving strategies.
For your convenience, here are three ways to initiate support for Faithful Fathering:
“See, I will send the prophet Elijah to you before that great and dreadful day of the Lord comes. He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of children to their fathers; or else I will come and strike the land with a curse.” – Malachi 4:5-6. In the spirit of Elijah, Faithful Fathering is in the heart-turning ministry!
Prayer guide: Father, I am thankful for Your example. Help me emulate Your triune nature by prioritizing my physical presence in the home, engaging emotionally in family and leading spiritually by example. That is the dad You call me to be and that is the dad my kids need to see. Amen.
A faithful father turns his heart to the Lord and to his children.
