Luke 1:38

Mary said, "I am the maidservant of the Lord. let it be done to me as you say." With that the angel left her. Thereupon Mary set out and entered Zechariah's house where she greeted Elizabeth.

Mary, the mother of Jesus, visits her cousin Elizabeth and receives love and support during her pregnancy.

Using Mary's witness as or model, the Elizabeth Ministry of St Louis Church seeks to provide friendship, support, and compassion to anyone experiencing challenges related to pregnancy and childbearing.
