My son has been feeling isolated and bullied by his teacher, causing him to have depressive thoughts and tendencies, so I tried to meet with the teacher but was refused. My old way to handle this would have been to “fight” with my words, but I prayed for God to bless me with wisdom on how to handle this situation. The principal arranged a meeting, and I prayed again for God to guide my tongue and give me control of my anger.

The meeting went very well! I got my point across in a respectful manner and felt the Lord empowered me to speak for my son and the other students being affected by this teacher’s actions. This was a prime example of learning to know God on a personal level through trust and relying on God’s guidance in the midst of trials, which is what we have been covering in our virtual bible study. 

I feel so much peace after this class. It was so wonderful. Very thankful for Dr. Parker and Mary for taking the time out to teach us. 

After coming to the clinic while considering abortion, a client joined our I Am She program to help build long-term goals and develop healthy relationship practices. The client’s dream was to pursue a career working with animals, which she thought having a baby might interfere with accomplishing. She worked with her mentor to set realistic goals to achieve her objective. She quickly began searching for intern positions and was immediately accepted for a position close to her home. She is overcome with joy and thankfulness about finding support that allowed her to keep her baby and still achieve her education and career goals. She is currently a straight A student in her second semester of college.
