I am so excited to introduce you to my sister-in-law and pastor's wife! Rebekah Boots is happily married to Pastor Steve Boots of Mount Victory Baptist Church in Richmond, Virginia. She is a mother three and stays very busy teaching and doing all of the secretarial work for our church. Rebekah has been one of the greatest influences on my own motherhood journey, so I am excited for you to hear what she has to share with us.
