Women Need Each Other!

January 29, 2020 By TheVillageLady Leave a Comment

Women need advocates who love and support them through every season of life.

These last ten years I’ve seen God do incredible things in the lives of women who were once strangers. I’ve watched women regain custody of their children only to return to the patterns that created the loss in the first place. I’ve seen women. One along to cry with or just sit with those too broken-hearted to move.

I’ve seen women crumble as they recall the hurt of the past and I’ve seen head lifters, women who help other women lift their heads to live in freedom from shame and guilt.

Ten years ago, What started out has a call to obedience to start @carriedtofullterm also gave birth to some beautiful relationships with other women.

Relationships like the one that started two years after the mission started. I realized I needed some help, a lot of help. That’s when I met Kathleen, Founder and Director of the Mary’s Shelter.

Kathleen gave me the tools I needed to get started.
She is not only a dear friend, partner, and prayer warrior, she is also a constant source of encouragement. She is always ready to help whenever I need her.

Wherever you are in your faith journey, don’t be afraid to ask for help. Don’t hesitate to seek out people who are doing or have done the thing you’re getting ready to do.

Find an advocate who will not hesitate to walk the next leg of the journey with you. Ten years ago this month, @carriedtofullterm came into existence and I’ve had my dear friend and support, Kathleen with me for eight of those ten years.

She is to me what our community have become to the mothers at @carriedtofullterm

Seasons of Change

October 29, 2019 By TheVillageLady Leave a Comment

When I recall the verse to remain steadfast and unmoved, always abounding, being present, learning God’s ways and being in His word, I didn’t always think of a mission or reason for remaining other than it pleased the Lord.

In the last eight years, our family has been on what I believe I call, training. We’ve had to learn to live and walk in a way that has been different from all that we’ve known.

When routines get canceled and the plans for what we expected our futures to be and looked like getting completely changed, the rerouting at first, was confusing and sometimes chaotic. Even in the face of the confusion, our family’s response was, Lord we’ll trust you.

I remember when God captured my heart to care for pregnant and homeless women through Carried To Full Term, my husbands’ response was how? My answer was, I don’t we’re going to get a house.

I must admit, I’d created a visual in my head of how God was going to make it happen. I imagined opportunities and doors swinging open in a fancy, poetic, slow-motion display, nope!


Nothing would be further from the truth, as the doors closed faster than a double push on the fast forward button. Looking back, I can now see how it All, was a necessary part of His plan.

We are sharing our experiences not because we are more faithful or capable. We believe we can be a source of support and encouragement to many people who are desiring to be obedient.

It doesn’t matter the season when God’s plan gets fully activated He moves forward. Thankfully, He doesn’t abandon you to figure it out on your own. He uses every experience, and every season to grow you as He’s has done with our family.

Our four children have had a front-row seat, nope! I stand corrected, they’ve been given uniforms and they’ve been participants on the court of faith moves, sacrificial living and love giving from day one.

As you are in a season of seeking or taking the first steps, we want to encourage you to trust that the Lord has placed this mission in you and He will not abandon you. Be steadfast and unmoved!
