* “Galentine’s Day” (made popular in 2010 in a popular sitcom) has been celebrated in events large or small. After attending a fun Galentine’s Day event in Honolulu Hawaii all by herself while on a 2 week vacation with her husband a few years back, it has been on her heart to host a Galentine’s' day event in her city. Given pandemic restrictions, she is hosting a reflective online retreat this year instead to launch this concept and focus. Excited to join with Theodora in hosting this event given her passion for journaling and meeting women where they are at.

Only by the grace of God can I say with full confidence: “My story is His story”. One that reflects His story of Creation, the Fall, and focusing on His Redemption story in my life and the ongoing work of Restoration in Jesus name. This year, I am pumped to link arms with Women’s Journey of Faith to offer the Faith Stories workshop!: Since the organization officially began with our first conference in September 2000, my most rewarding times in leadership has been sharing testimony myself, hearing testimonies from our speakers, our team and the women in our community.
