Faith, following God, catching babies and loving freedom in Christ!

After emancipation, Black families didn’t wait to be accepted or wait for a seat at the table — they built their own. Their own towns, their own future, their own legacy.
Across the South, entire towns rose from the ground up: safe havens of self-determination, culture, and courage. These "Freedom Colonies" weren’t just places to live — they were acts of resistance, resilience, and rebirth. 🌱

From Hobson, Virginia to Mound Bayou, Mississippi, our ancestors carved out Legacy with their bare hands. 🖤

✨M.O.R.E with Growing and Graced Ministries will be embarking on a beautiful Journey August 1st, 2025 spending extra time in prayer and studying the Book of James.
✨I will open a zoom call for prayer and worship daily at 07:30 AM EST and a zoom call Every evening at 7:30 PM EST for anyone who wishes to come together and discuss the readings.
✨During this time the Holy Spirit highlighted a need for each person to rise an hour earlier and also set aside a special hour of personal time with God.
✨It was also impressed upon my heart the need for the people to come together and fast. Each individual will pray and be lead by the Holy Spirit on the fast for
Them but as all will turn down our plates in whatever way we are called to.
✨If you’d like to join the conversational forum Within our online fellowship DM me I will send you the link to join the FB page and the discord group!
