Calling precious amazing single women without children. Is that you? Then this is for you! Do you find Mother's Day a little tricky? Do you find the fact that churches sometimes prioritize families over singles occasionally disappointing? Furthermore, in the "importance" game, do you find that single women with children are sometimes viewed a little more highly than single women without children, and the end result is that it can (or has been) even a smidge painful or tricky at times? If you fit this category, or are any single woman currently without biological children, then this is your moment! You have come to the right place! A few of the men from the SingleFaith community in partnership with Grace Baptist Church want to celebrate and YOU! You deserve it!
