Cynthia's parents instilled core values in their daughters. They taught us to love the Lord, they worked hard and they taught us, as children, to do chores. We each had household chores to do. They also insisted that we had to "get a good education" because "no one can over take that away from you."  Our patents' mantra was to "learn all you can" and "learn to stand on your own two feet so that you don't have
to depend on anybody to do things for you."

Cynthia met Rev. Jeffrey A. Ingraharn, when he was a student at the Yale Divinity School in New Haven. CT. He was a Seminarian Student assigned to Immanuel Baptist Church where she was a member. Over the years they became friends and the rest, thank God, is history!

Rev and Mrs. lngraharn were married in August 1988. They were blessed to have two wonderful daughters, Kristan Joi and Bethany Faith Ingraham.
