Welcome Jared & Melanie Foster - Journey to Adoption Story
We are honored to have Jared and Melanie Foster join us at this year’s event to share their powerful story. Through a season of deep loss, their faith carried them forward—and today, they are walking in hope as God opens doors for them to grow their family through adoption.
You won’t want to miss this precious couple’s story of perseverance in the face of loss. Their honesty and transparency will truly move and inspire you as they share their journey toward adoption.

❤️ 2025 Love Wins Event Recap
The 2025 Love Wins Event was more than a race—it was a community coming together with a shared purpose: to bring hope, encouragement, and tangible support to children and families impacted by foster care and adoption.
Because of your generosity, after event expenses, Broken Together Ministry donated more than $600 directly to participating organizations, helping them continue their life-changing work throughout Indiana.
Your support didn't stop there. Throughout the year, proceeds from the event helped us:
- ❤️ Bless a kinship adoptive family with Christmas support.
- ❤️ Provide mattresses, beds, bedding, and other everyday essentials to local foster and adoptive families.
- ❤️ Continue building bridges between our community, churches, and organizations serving vulnerable children.
Race day itself was unforgettable! Participants enjoyed a beautiful 5K run/walk through the peaceful country roads of Jamestown, while our Kids Fun Run was filled with laughter, determination, and excitement as children tackled the obstacle course and celebrated every finish.
Every registration, every sponsorship, every volunteer, and every donation made an impact.
When you register for the 2026 Love Wins Event, you're doing more than signing up for a race—you are investing in organizations that serve vulnerable children, equipping foster and adoptive families, and helping bring hope to our community.
Move with Purpose. Make a Difference. Because Love Wins. ❤️
❤️ About Broken Together Ministry
Founded in 2016, Broken Together Ministry exists to connect people with hope by bringing together churches, communities, and organizations that serve vulnerable children and families.
As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, we are passionate about raising awareness of the incredible resources available to those involved in foster care, adoption, kinship care, and family preservation. We believe no family should have to navigate these journeys alone.
The Love Wins 5K & 1-Mile Walk is more than an event—it's a movement. Proceeds help make this event possible and support the organizations that participate in our Community Resource Area, enabling them to continue serving families throughout Indiana.
Our mission is simple:
Build community. Inspire unity. Restore trust.
By creating opportunities for people to connect, hear one another's stories, and discover ways to get involved, we believe we can strengthen our communities and make a lasting difference—together.
