“Whole Armor Every Day”

Pastor James Weaver

Sunday, August 16, 2015

During the first trimester (weeks 1-12) your baby

grows faster than at any other time. By six weeks, a

heartbeat can usually be heard and by the end of

week 12, your baby’s bones, muscles, and all the organs of the body have

formed. At this point, your baby looks like a tiny human being and is

now call a fetus.
