Like many of us, I found Moms in the Making through a frantic, desperate search while navigating all of the emotions that come with infertility. Through joining a group and going through the studies, I found hope for the first time in our journey! I loved the community, encouragement, and support each group brought, and I quickly found myself making
Over the past year, God has done what I can only describe as heart surgery on me. I entered this season feeling lost and uncertain—after stepping away from acting after 10 years, and making a Holy Spirit-led move from LA to Florida, I didn’t know what God was doing with my life. At the same time, I was navigating infertility
$20,000 is the amount I needed for my endometriosis surgery and travel in January 2023. I was so anxious and stressed because I didn’t know how I’d pay for it. I knew it was God’s plan, so I trusted He would provide. During the December 2022 Moms in the Making prophetic prayer night, an intercessor prayed for the finances for
Before Moms in the Making, I would wake up in the middle of the night consumed by thoughts of infertility. I cried in the shower most nights and felt deeply alone, even though I had a support system around me. But last summer changed everything. God opened a door I didn’t even realize I needed. He gave me space to
We were encouraged before the most recent Moms in the Making conference to come with something specific we were seeking the Lord for. This year for me, that was physical healing. For over four years, I’d had physical pain that began after my first miscarriage, lower pelvic pain, always on the left side. It started small but gradually got worse,
I flew to Tennessee from the Netherlands for the 2025 Leaders Retreat in March. I went with an open heart and mind. I didn’t have a specific prayer, I simply wanted to absorb everything. During one of the sessions, there was an announcement about baptisms, and a few girls signed up. A conversation followed, explaining that some people choose to
My fertility journey started out rough. I became bitter and angry when others were getting pregnant, and I would question why things were so difficult for me. I lost touch with close friends who had children and removed myself from any conversation or gathering centered around kids or pregnancy. I even became distant from a close family member who got
At the leader retreat, we completed an activity where we wrote anything we wanted to surrender to the Lord. I felt led to write “discouragement” on my paper. I have been contending for healing and hope in a few areas of my life, such as becoming a mom, dealing with anxiety and depression, and experiencing pain in my right foot.
We lost three pregnancies between the ages of 37-39. At 39, we started IVF. I was hesitant, believing that I was trying to overrule God by making a baby happen. He reminded me through this journey that I don’t have that kind of power! Right before our egg retrieval, we were advised that we only had 3 follicles ready, and one
I took my first positive pregnancy test in January 2020. We weren’t trying to get pregnant so it caught me completely by surprise. I got excited and very quickly made a baby registry on Amazon & ordered a pregnancy announcement through Etsy. We went in for that first checkup & the sonogram tech was silent. That made me nervous. Everyone kept
We want to hear your story! Where has God done in your life? Your testimony could be the very thing that restores hope, strengthens faith, and reminds someone else that God sees them and has not forgotten their story.
