 Our heartbeat is to come alongside women during the joyful, but also challenging, time of bringing new life into this world. The weeks leading up to, during and following the birth of a child can be exciting, difficult, painful, fearful, and hormonal! With gracemothers, each expectant mom can feel connected, cared for, and nurtured during this unique and beautiful time in her life.
Working alongside the children's ministry and community groups, expectant moms at Grace Fellowship Church can experience the deep love and care of Jesus Christ himself in tangible, practical, heartfelt ways.
Most ministries require women to commit to regular involvement. Gracemothers is unique in that it is only for a few weeks. Dont' be surprised, though, if you end up with some pretty tight sisters in Christ as a result of this connection! It's such a blessing!
