interior%20decos%20black.tifA mom cannot always leave an inheritance, but every mom can leave a legacy with Jesus Christ. Together, let’s take each day of your pregnancy and grow closer to God. In (approximately) 280 days, you will have God’s greatest gift in your arms. It is our prayer that each day as you count down to the birth of your baby you will feel God’s presence in that day.
