The African-American woman’s son had been in prison for over a decade and was released at a date that was not made public or known to her.

In the first scene of the video, the woman is filmed at a family prayer gathering thanking God.

Completely unaware that she is actually holding the hand of her son, the woman remains focused as she continues passionately praying.

After the group ends the prayer, her son stands next to her and gives her the surprise of her life.

The woman is visibly overwhelmed by her son’s presence because it is obvious that she was unaware that he had been released.

The woman proceeds to break down in tears and hugs her son with so much love.
