We have a few Praise Reports from Magnolia:
Praise Report #1
A woman scheduled an appointment at Magnolia Women’s Center with her sister to confirm a positive pregnancy test she had taken at home. She shared that if she was pregnant, she wanted to keep her baby. What I didn’t know was that her sister had encouraged her to consider abortion because the two of them felt alone, without family support, and overwhelmed by the uncertainty ahead.
As we talked, I shared my personal story and what led me to open Magnolia. During that conversation, her sister began to cry. She admitted that she had encouraged abortion out of fear and concern for how difficult things might be, but after hearing the story of hope and perseverance, she hugged her sister and apologized for even suggesting it.
The pregnancy test came back positive. She was still too early for an ultrasound, but we scheduled her follow-up appointment so she can return for a scan.
Please keep this mother and her sister in prayer — that God would guide their steps, give them peace, wisdom, and strength. If all goes well and she chooses to continue her pregnancy, Magnolia will be there every step of the way to support and help them however we can.

Praise Report #2
A woman came to Magnolia Women’s Center for a pregnancy test and ultrasound after receiving two positive tests at home. She shared that she was considering abortion because she had plans to return to school this summer, and a baby would completely change those plans.
Her boyfriend had dropped her off and was waiting in the car. I gently told her, “If you’d like, he can come in with you.” She called him, and he came inside to be by her side during the appointment.
After being asked if they wanted the screen on or off, she said on, and together, they saw their baby on the screen for the very first time. They witnessed the baby’s strong heartbeat, and in that moment, everything began to change.
After the ultrasound, the mother shared that her plans had changed. When I asked her what she wanted moving forward, she said, “I want to continue my pregnancy. I want this baby.”
Hallelujah! God is so amazing!
Please keep this mother, father, and baby in prayer as they begin this journey together.
Thank you, and God bless you Friends of Magnolia, for all your love and support towards this ministry, dads, moms, and babies ♥️
