GOODNESS & MERCY BIRTH SERVICES · MID-MICHIGAN

A gentle, steady presence for your birth journey.

Faith-filled, compassionate birth support and childbirth education in Mid-Michigan.

We believe that pregnancy, birth, and motherhood are precious gifts from Yehovah. Every mother is created in His image and deserves to be treated with dignity, kindness, and compassionate care.

Rooted in Faith. Called to Serve.

At Goodness & Mercy Birth Services, our faith in Yeshua the Messiah shapes the way we serve. As Messianic Christians, we believe the account of creation in Genesis is true. Yehovah designed women’s bodies with remarkable wisdom and purpose, and we believe pregnancy, childbirth, and motherhood are gifts worthy of thoughtful preparation and loving support.

We also recognize that we live in a fallen world, where birth does not always unfold as planned. We value natural childbirth, wise medical care when needed, and informed decisions made with confidence rather than fear.

We believe in strong marriages, strong families, and women caring for other women. We believe in hospitality, serving our neighbors, and showing the love of Yeshua through practical acts of kindness.

Our biblical convictions guide both our teaching and our care. We welcome the opportunity to serve families from many different backgrounds while remaining faithful to those convictions.

Our desire is to encourage mothers and fathers, strengthen families, and help them welcome their babies with wisdom, peace, and joy.

The Goodness Behind Our Name

When Yehovah looked upon His creation, He called it tov—good. That Hebrew word has become precious to our family. It reminds us that Yehovah created life with wisdom and purpose, and that His design for mothers, babies, and families is good.

At Goodness & Mercy Birth Services, we want our work to reflect that goodness: honoring the way He created our bodies, nurturing families, and offering compassionate care when life doesn’t unfold as expected.

Our desire is to help mothers and babies flourish.
