As members of the St. Joseph’s Angel Friend ministry, our purpose is to provide practical, emotional and spiritual support to needy local pregnant mothers who have chosen life over abortion for their children often times under very difficult circumstances. Our ministry works accompany the mother through her journey during pregnancy and beyond. We work closely with the Gabriel Network Office, to evaluate the mother’s needs and determine how to best serve her. We also work closely with our congregation and community to involve them as we support our angel moms.
As Angel Friends, we try to be empathetic listener to these moms who often are very lonely or scared or who may just need someone to simply listen to them and value them. We pray for them and with them when possible as they courageously work through their choice to give life to their child. Our prayer and hope is that our congregation at St Joseph’s will also become active prayer warriors for these courageous moms. If you feel a calling to work with this ministry please contact Gloria O’Brien at 301-379-5946 for more information.
Please join us as we try to live out Jesus’s words in Mathew 25:40 “Whatever you do to the least of these brothers (and sisters) of mine, even the least of them, this you do unto me”.
