Dear Friends,

“O Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!” ~Psalm 8:9
We have a lot of great things going on at CRADLE! Another mom accepted Jesus as her Saviour!
Glory to God! Our Office Manager, Christiana, will be going on maternity leave this month to have her precious baby girl. Please keep Christiana, her husband, and their baby in your prayers. We are praising God for His goodness and blessings on their lives! God answered their prayers and also prayers for CRADLE. For over a year, we prayed for God to send us the people He wanted for the open positions at CRADLE. Praise the Lord, God has sent us Carla Fannin to join us as the Client Coordinator and Brooklynn Arthur as the Office Assistant! In addition to filling these much-needed positions, the Lord has blessed us with new volunteers! I love how God works things for our good and His glory! We give Him the praise for it all! God is faithful!

We were blessed to provide three hundred CRADLE tote bags to SOMC Labor and Delivery to handout to new mothers. Each bag included personalized CRADLE items such as: pens, lip balm, clip-on hand sanitizer, and baby onesies. In addition, the totes contained a large print Bible, a gospel tract on how to be saved, CRADLE information, and a list of all of our supporting churches with their addresses and phone numbers. We pray that God uses these tote bags to lead new moms to CRADLE to find help and encouragement, also that they be led to a good, Bible believing church where they can grow in the Lord. With everything we do, we always want to point to our Saviour, Jesus.

Throughout the month of April, CRADLE will be holding a Baby Shower Drive. The items that we
currently need the most are: toddler shoes (size 5-9), boy and girl clothing (size 3t-5t), diapers (size 3-7), Pull-ups, sleepers/pajamas (size 18 months-5t), baby laundry detergent, sippy cups, and baby bottles. CRADLE has baby registries at both Amazon and Walmart. Donations can be dropped off at the CRADLE office Tuesday-Thursday, 10am-4pm. I’m including a copy of the Baby Shower Drive flyer for your church; feel free to make copies. Please share this Drive with your congregation. We are so grateful for your continued support!

We plan to have a Mother’s Appreciation Giveaway in May. This event will be open not only to
CRADLE clients, but also to anyone who is in need in the surrounding communities. We will be handing out baby and toddler items, clothes, diapers, wipes, diaper rash cream, etc. Bibles and gospel tracts will also be given to everyone who attends the event. We will be ready to sign-up new clients and give out CRADLE and supporting church information. Thank you for your prayers as we continue to share the Word of God and help those in need.

We are excited to see how God continues to move at CRADLE. As the weather warms up, we usually have an increase in clients. I ask you to join us in praying for our current clients and those that God sends our way. Please pray for our staff, volunteers, and board as we reach out to help everyone we can and that our efforts to share the gospel will be fruitful. We praise God for the increase that He brings!

 

Thank you for your prayers and faithful support of this ministry! We are incredibly grateful!

 

Serving with great expectation,

Mandy Arthur, Executive Director
