Empowerment and Community Support with Agape Women's Services

from Benchmark Happenings · host Jonathan Tipton, Steve Reed & Christine Reed

Forget everything you know about non-profit organizations, because Leslie Walker from Agape Women's Services is here to share an inspiring tale of unconditional love and community support that is simply too incredible to pass up. Imagine a place where both men and women receive much-needed assistance throughout a pregnancy journey, a place that not only offers medical services but also aims to educate and mentor. That's what Agape Women's Services, nestled in Johnson City, Tennessee, is all about. It's been serving the local community for a solid 40 years, and its mission resonates powerfully even today, thanks to a devoted band of around 50 volunteers.Leslie draws us into their world, where love meets practicality, from pregnancy testing, STI testing, and ultrasounds to educational classes that empower. But the magic doesn't stop there. Agape also offers parenting classes, a resource closet, a baby corner, and a Bible study called 'Forgiven and Set Free.' No stone is left unturned; every woman who steps into their center is shown that she is valued and cherished. And it doesn’t end with just the women. Hear how the effusive support of the East Tennessee community has allowed them to thrive in a newly renovated building without a shadow of debt. Leslie’s joy and humility shine through as she discusses the staggering generosity of the community and her privilege in serving such a noble cause. Join us on this journey through the remarkable world of Agape Women's Services, where unconditional love and education have the power to transform lives.To help you to navigate the home buying and mortgage process, Jonathan & Steve are currently licensed in Tennessee, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, and Virginia, contact us today at 423-491-5405 or visit www.jonathanandsteve.com.
