EMBRACE GRACE

Embrace Grace is a 12-week support group for moms-to-be facing an unplanned pregnancy. Feeling uncertain, isolated, or even a little afraid is normal! We get it and we’re here for you! Each week, we’ll do a lesson and have time for group discussion. You’ll make friends, have group leaders to support and empower you, and even get an amazing baby shower! Whether you chose to parent or place the baby for adoption, we are in this with you. If you deliver before the 12-week course ends, you’re welcome to bring your baby along to the group!
This supportive group will be led by Cory Winslow. Cory is the wife of a local pastor and mom of four who developed a passion for helping other moms after her own struggles following the birth of her children. She has run an Embrace Grace group previously and is excited to bring the program to Keeping Pace!
This 12-week session will meet in our Baby Cafe on Wednesdays April 23rd through July 9th from 6:30-7:30 PM.
