The family matriarch, Mema, was a woman of great wisdom and faith. When her son and daughter-in-law perished in a plane crash, she assumed the responsibility of raising her three granddaughters Shavonne, Cherise, and Joyce. She also made a significant impact on the lives of her nieces Marilyn and Monique during their summer visits with her.Mema spent years laboring in prayer for the salvation of her Pretty Little Blacks Girl, as she affectionately called them.
However, as these young women blossom into adulthood, they experience many heartaches, disappointments, and personal struggles that challenge their individual belief in God.Mema has passed away and this year marks the eighth year that the girls have gathered together for her annual memorial celebration. Eight is the biblical number of new beginnings.
Will this be the year that Mema's prayers are answered, and her Pretty Little Black Girls allow God back in their lives? Or will the words of prophecy that she has spoken over their lives fail?
