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: 1st Lady/Minister/President /Director of Christian Education: Mrs. Angela Carol Carter

On February 9, 2018, during the Annual Healthy Start Coalition of Flagler & Volusia Counties, Inc., Meeting, I will be both blessed and honored to bestow our Annual Healthy Start LifeSong Award to Mrs. Angela Carter who is the 1st Lady and one of the Ministers at Bethel Baptist Church, New Smyrna Beach, FL., in addition to serving as the President of the Volusia County & Vicinity Ministers Wives and Ministers Widows (VCVMWMW) and Director of Christian Education for Bethel Christian Academy and Preschool.

One of my goals as the Healthy Start LifeSong Community Liaison is to engage Faith Based Groups/Organizations to create and implement ministries that help our families to become SAFER, STRONGER, HEALTHIER and HAPPIER. I am currently working closely with 1st Lady Carter on (2) LifeSong Ministries; A Quilting Ministry (Tummy Time Only) at Bethel Baptist Church and Adopting /Supporting a Family with small children who benefit monthly by our financial and spiritual gifts sponsored by the VCVMWMW Organization.
