Lighthouse Ministries International we thank you for the blessing of fresh fruit, meats, pastries, and more. Our families are beyond thankful and are getting freshly baked breast daily because of you. The amount of nutritious food will ensure that babies are born healthy and our homeless families feel remembered. Smoothies are being made, the grill is out and we plan to teach how to grill, bake and fry chicken all because you. Thank you!

Weed In Pregnancy? A Doctor's Thoughts

Our youth seem to think that the de-criminalization of cannabis gives them the permission to smoke. It does not. Please, listen to this medical doctor talk about cannabis and the effects on your pregnancy and the brain of your child that is being fed THC /CBD.

Hi. My name is Tanya, I am 42 years old, mother of 2 children and even already a grandma. I am a certified personal fitness instructor. I am looking for friends who would share my views on life and health, who love sports, healthy food, or just dream of starting a healthy lifestyle. Girls, let's be friends, train together, take care of your body. Come to my online classes (via skype, vibe or zoom). I will gladly share with everyone the secrets of my nutrition, and also, if you want, I will help you correct yours. All classes will be held in Russian and Ukrainian, so that you can not only become more beautiful, but also touch a different culture and language. For my part, I will be grateful for the help with my English. ‌My instagram : https://instagram.com/tanitagym.my ‌email : [email protected] ‌fb :https://www.facebook.com/TanitaGym.my/

Great Day All. I am a mother looking to give away clothes. My dear daughter is growing fast and I do not anticipate having another child any time soon. Does anyone know of any organizations, working directly with single mothers or teen parents, in need of clothes and/or toys? Any feedback is appreciate.
