Summary

With a marriage spanning 21 years, Dean and I have experienced the challenges of broken relationships before finding each other in 2002. Our lives were devoid of joy, happiness, and peace, as everything seemed to have been stolen from us. Through divine intervention, we were brought together with a purpose to restore what was missing in our lives. Now, our desire is to give back and help others understand the power of strength that stems from our Heavenly Father. Our mission is to not just have life, but to have it abundantly.
