Before joining Embrace Grace, I was struggling deeply with depression and felt completely alone. After calling off my wedding because of my ex fiancé’s infidelity, I found out I was pregnant and my world felt like it was falling apart. At one point, I even considered abortion because I didn’t know how I could possibly do this on my own. But through prayer, fasting, and reading my Bible, God began changing my heart. During a 24 hour fast, I cried out to Him for strength and direction, and He reminded me that this baby was not a mistake, but a blessing.
When I found Embrace Grace, I found exactly what I had been praying for. I had been searching for a Christian community where I could feel safe. Instead of carrying everything by myself, I was surrounded by women who encouraged me, prayed with me, and reminded me that I wasn't alone.
Today, I'm in a completely different place than where I started. Mentally and spiritually, I have experienced so much healing. My relationship with God is stronger, my church community has become a source of encouragement, and the fear and shame I once carried have been replaced with hope. What once felt like the end of my story became the beginning of a testimony, and I'm so grateful for God's faithfulness every step of the way.
