CALLING 2 MEAL HEROES!

Every hero doesn’t wear a cape; sometimes they show up carrying dinner.

We need 2 Meal Heroes to provide a meal or a meal gift card for our Embrace Life moms:

August 17
August 24

Embrace Life walks alongside single moms who are courageously raising their little ones. Providing dinner is a simple way to say:

“You are seen. You are loved. You’re not alone.”

Will you be one of our Meal Heroes?

WANTED: 2 Meal Heroes!

We're looking for 2 volunteers to provide a meal for our Embrace Life moms on August 7 or August 24.

Embrace Life supports single moms who are courageously raising their little ones. A warm meal tells these moms, "You are seen. You are loved. You're not alone."

It's a simple act of kindness that makes a lasting difference.

Can you help fill one of these dates? You can bring food or donate a gift card.

Our Moms Need Our Community!

Another semester of Embrace Grace and Embrace Life begins in just a few weeks, and we're looking for meal sponsors!

Embrace Grace serves single moms who are expecting a baby, while Embrace Life walks alongside moms as they raise their little ones. Every Monday and Thursday, these moms gather for encouragement, friendship, practical support, and a warm meal prepared by someone who cares.

Would you, your family, small group, business, or church provide dinner for one evening this semester?

Embrace Grace (Thursdays): https://mealtrain.com/l33zqm
Embrace Life (Mondays): https://mealtrain.com/y00enl

Thank you for helping us love these moms in such a meaningful way!

Motherhood may not have come the way you expected — but your story is not over.

We want single and unmarried moms to know this truth: you can still have your baby and pursue your dreams.

This support group is a place for encouragement, friendship, and real community with women who understand the challenges you’re facing. You’ll find support, lasting connections, and leaders who are ready to walk beside you every step of the way.

You are stronger than you think, and you do not have to do this alone.

If you or someone you know could benefit from Embrace Life, we’d love to connect.

God is still changing lives through every conversation, every class, and every act of compassion.

One beautiful example is Elizabeth’s story through Embrace Grace, our 12-week Bible study and support program for single and pregnant moms.

Elizabeth first came looking for encouragement and community while caring for her precious 5-month-old daughter. Though she had accepted Christ years earlier, she had never truly experienced discipleship or felt deeply connected to a church family.

Over the course of the program, God began drawing her closer to Him. At the Embrace Grace Baby Shower, Pastor Jimmy Vaughn shared a message that touched her heart deeply. Soon after, Elizabeth decided to take the next step in her faith journey by joining a church and being baptized.

Surrounded by family and her beautiful baby girl, Elizabeth publicly declared her faith in Jesus. She shared that Embrace Grace helped her realize just how deeply loved she truly is.

Whether through pregnancy tests, ultrasounds, parenting support, or programs like Embrace Grace, God continues to open spiritual doors and transform lives physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

You are not alone.
If you’ve experienced controlling, toxic, or abusive relationships, this group is a safe place to begin healing.

In partnership with ARMS (Abuse Recovery Ministry Services), this weekly women’s support group is designed to help women:

• Recognize the signs and patterns of emotional, verbal, physical, and spiritual abuse
• Find hope, healing, and practical tools for recovery
• Rebuild confidence, boundaries, and healthy beliefs
• Connect with other women who understand and will walk alongside you
• Experience encouragement through a faith-based, biblically grounded program

Healing takes time, but you do not have to walk through it alone.
