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.
My husband, Jake, and I got married in October of 2014. We knew we wanted to have a family, but we also knew there might be some challenges due to my diagnosis of PCOS when I was a teenager. We started trying for babies a little over a year after being married, with no success. […]
Attending the Moms in the Making leader’s retreat in April was a challenge. I was on medical leave and not sure if I could travel; there was a financial component; and I had reoccurring nightmares about attending the retreat before it was even announced. The morning I was traveling with friends to the location, I […]
Recently I attended the Moms in the Making leader retreat. Leading up to this weekend, I realized how much I really wanted friendships with other women who felt like sisters to me. Although I have an older sister, she chose to take a different path than me and I have missed having that sisterly relationship. […]
I married Erwin in March 2018. Even before our wedding, we knew we wanted children. Six months after we got married we decided to go for it. At first, I wasn’t that worried. However, as it started to take longer, I began to wonder if everything was ok. After two years we decided to go […]

I wasn’t going to attend the Moms in the Making Leader Retreat because I didn’t have the money to pay for airfare and lodging. I asked for an extension to give me time to come up with the money and was graciously given more time. After a week, I decided I was going to tell […]
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 […]
In 2017, my husband and I celebrated three years of marriage. We were excited to start “trying” for our first baby. Having had very painful periods and ruptured ovarian cysts, my GYN planned surgery to remove the cysts to prepare for pregnancy. During this surgery, doctors discovered cancerous ovarian tumors and could not proceed. A […]
In 2018, we began trying to grow our family. After two miscarriages, I received a diagnosis of an autoimmune disorder called APS (Antiphospholipid Syndrome), which can cause blood clotting and miscarriage. My doctor added blood thinners to my protocol but I had two more miscarriages. I was so angry and confused. I knew God was […]
