“For this reason also, since the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so that you may walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the Knowledge of God.”
Colossians 1:9-10
Embracing Options is a ministry that relies on prayer and God’s direction and intervention. Reliance on the leading of our Lord has produced much fruit this year. Men and women show up at our door for STD tests, pregnancy tests, and free ultrasounds. We listen and discern their individual situations and guide them with truth about positive life choices that line up with the Word of God.
Our Parenting classes are bearing much fruit as young women (and sometimes men) learn how to be better parents, truly caring for the needs of their children. Through this they “Earn While they Learn” baby bucks to spend in our Ba-Bee Boutique (located at our Webster Center). This past year more than 400 items went home with the participants!
It warms our hearts when moms and dads return to Embracing Options with their new little ones, wrapped in the handmade baby quilts, crochet blankets, hats, and booties they received from us, with proud smiles only a parent can have!
Many thanks go out to all who partner with us through your prayers, volunteerism, and financial gifts. We couldn’t reach out with the love of Jesus Christ without you. You have participated in the production of much Godly fruit this year!
