WE VALUE THE GIFT OF LIFE – SIXTEEN WEEKS AFTER CONCEPTION

Hello Spiritual Friends, my mom felt me move for the first time this week! I do kicks

and summersaults. On an ultrasound, my mom could see me wiggle my fingers and toes. I move around a lot and I am getting bigger all the time. God blessed them, saying: “Be fertile and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it.” (Genesis 1:27-28
