Our Legacy is in Your Hands

Strengthening Families by Strengthening Faith

Did you know that for every white baby that dies,

two – three black babies die?

What Can We Do To Help Our Black Babies Live?

We must come together as an entire “Village” and find ways to help educate, strengthen and empower our families so that they will have good parenting, decision making and social skills.

Putting Words into Action: Bethel Baptist Church— LifeSong Quilting Ministry : Pastor L. Pete Carter Jr.

The Bethel Baptist Church LifeSong Sewing Ministry is constantly creating individualized, one-of-kind and beautiful designed quilts. Many families in our communities throughout Volusia and surrounding areas are being blessed as they continue to sew pieces for peace and joy in the hearts of many. Their quilts are given to at-risk and low income families with infants. They are designed to be used during floor exercises and tummy-time activities. If you know of any families that can benefit from this ministry, please contact the church office at 386-427-8889, Bethel Baptist Church, New Smyrna Beach - Pastor L. Pete Carter, Jr.

This ministry has been a blessing to all who serve in it and those who have been touched by it and we Thank God for it.

“Thank You” Pastor Pete, Mother Elizabeth, Sister Sharon, Sister Suzie, Sister Janice, and Sister Phalese for your hard work, commitment and dedication to this most noteworthy LifeSong Ministry.

How Can I Learn More About LifeSong and Keeping Our Mom’s and Babies Healthy & Safe LifeSong is a community initiative funded by The Healthy Start Coalition of Flagler & Volusia Counties which provides free training on how to Keep Our Mom’s and Babies Healthy & Safe and Tips/Techniques on how to improve /enhance Our Parenting Skills.

Joshua 24:15

But if serving

the Lord seems

undesirable to you,

then choose for

yourselves this day whom

you will serve,

whether the gods your

ancestors served beyond the

Euphrates,

or the gods of the
