A staff member responded that the church has a benevolence ministry and could take down her information and process a request. However, she was told there is no estimated time for approval, which could take days or even weeks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Nikalie reacted to the response, noting that seeing and hearing the baby made the situation feel urgent, and expressed frustration with the slow process, especially given the size of the church.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 nALdY copyright\">Copyright 2025 by KPRC Click2Houston &#8211; All rights reserved.<\/p>\n<p>About the AuthorHolly Galvan Posey headshot<a class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__LinkBase-sc-1fnzlkn-9 eUojqd gMnWPT\" href=\"https:\/\/www.click2houston.com\/team\/2J32PDWT6X5BWU2SVME0EEE7B9\/\" title=\"View Holly Galvan Posey&#039;s full profile\" itemprop=\"url\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Holly Galvan Posey<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 gnunoy bOlrXa\">Holly joined the KPRC 2 digital team in March 2024, leveraging her eight years of expertise in blogging and digital content to share her passion for Houston.
