About

Mary’s Cradle is a Maternity and Infant Community Outreach Center located in Bluefield, WV.

We are a donation-based center that provides basic necessities for families in our community as well as the surrounding areas.

Mary’s Cradle began in 1995 as a ministry of the United Methodist Church but has since become a community project—meaning we are a ministry of the “church.” In this sense, the word “church” is not tied to a building or a denomination, but to a body of believers. We are the church—the United Body of Christ—and our goal is to be the hands and feet of Jesus.

Mary’s Cradle is a pro-life organization. We believe that every baby is a precious gift, and we are committed to doing everything we can to make the journey a little lighter for parents who make the loving and courageous choice to give birth to their babies. Through practical support, resources, encouragement, and the love of Christ, we want families to know that they are not alone and that their community is here to support them.
