“My God card Prayer”

You desire to equip and encourage families and when we join you, we receive such joy.”

I also want you to see that even as the mom who wrote the material, I still had different things happen once I actually put it in motion. On these “What Really Happened” blogs, you are going to see it all. We have done the Me cards now 3...
