Organized Outreach Events

Multiple times a year, Praying Through ministries organizes outreach events to hospitals across the United States in an effort to serve families journeying through childhood Illness, hospitalizations, and/or child loss.

Take a look at some of the photos from our "Mother's Day", "Father's Day", and "Christmas in the NICU/PICU" events.
