Thanks to God’s faithfulness, the generosity of donors and the hard work of partners, there’s a new ultrasound machine in New Mexico. This one is in the Legacy Pregnancy Resource Center in Hobbes, New Mexico.
Janet Waldrop, executive director of the Center, said the placement of the machine on Jan. 23 was an example of God’s providence.
