About Covenant Kids

People united through God to enhance the physical, emotional and spiritual well being of at risk children

Bill & Karen Lund, Founders

Covenant Kids was born in the living room of Bill and Karen Lund – a vision to create a ministry where they could honor God by serving the needs of abused and neglected children. Bill and Karen have many years of experience working with adults and children with special needs, and Karen has additional clinical experience as a Registered Nurse. They have a passion to meet the increasing need for homes to care for hurting children in North Texas. The Lunds have raised their family in Arlington, and their two adult children, Jessica and Daniel, are both actively serving on the staff of Covenant Kids.

Today, the Lunds' mission has developed into an exciting, growing agency. They have developed a professional team with more than 50 years of experience working with individuals with special needs. In the first full year of operation, Covenant Kids served over 300 children. The Lunds continue to be active in the day-to-day operations of the organization, and they hold every area to the highest standards. They actively recruit families and staff who share in their vision of serving children with excellence. They continually expand the scope of the agency to provide additional services, and they rely on God to direct the path of the agency, leading the company to a reputation of excellence and integrity.

The Lunds not only want to provide homes for children in need, but they also want to leave a positive, lasting influence on every child who in entrusted into the care of Covenant Kids…that each child will build self-confidence, conduct themselves with integrity and have the tools to develop into productive citizens with high moral character.

Covenant Kids' Treatment Goals:

1) To provide a safe, loving and structured family environment in which children may grow, mature and experience the love of God

2) To provide positive role modeling by highly trained foster parents who exhibit love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23)

3) To create a team of Christians (Foster/Adoptive parents and CK staff) who are called to work together in a spirit of cooperation and dedication to meeting the therapeutic needs of the children that God brings into our care.
