Snapshots of a Foster Child (2008) chronicles Rev. Darrell L. Armstrong time in foster care in Los Angeles.

In Snapshots of a Foster Child, Pastor Darrell Armstrong marries his love of history with geneaological research, and takes the reader on a family's migration journey from the Queen State, through the Antebellum South to the Far West. Along the way, he addresses his family's resilience in overcoming difficult subjects such as historical oppression, institutional racism, family adversity, and individual and family trauma. The take away message from his first published work is that, it what matters most in life is where you finish, not where you start.

The price is $20, and half of the proceeds from the book will go to "Vision 2030," Shiloh Baptist Church's visionary plan for community development and neighborhood revitalization, with the crown jewel being a new $8M Family Life Center.
