✨🎄Spotlight on One of Our Amazing Foster Caregivers! 🎄✨
This Christmas season, we want to shine a special light on Ms. Mary Davis and her adopted son, Copeland, for creating a magical Christmas yard display filled with inflatables for the neighborhood and community to enjoy. Their home is a place of JOY, wonder, and holiday cheer — and it reflects the generous spirit of this remarkable family.
Ms. Mary first welcomed Copeland into her home when he was just 4 years old through Methodist Foster Care. Four years later, she officially adopted him, and today Copeland is and extraordinary 11-year-old young man who continues to brighten every space he’s in. Watching him grow has been a true blessing.
We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to Ms. Davis — for her servant’s heart, her selflessness, her love for others, and her unwavering dedication to caring for children in foster care. She embodies what it means to give, to nurture, and to create a sense of belonging.
Thank you, Mary Davis and Copeland, for making the season brighter for so many!

We responded by creating Methodist Foster Care and we have grown to provides therapeutic foster care services throughout Louisiana. We have offices in Monroe, Alexandria, Lafayette, Covington, Houma, and Shreveport. Our mission is we guide children and families home to experience God’s love by following the teaching of Christ. We are able to fulfill our mission by providing a holistic approach to healing children from hard places.
