Blog

Every woman has a story. Every story reveals God's faithfulness.

The In My Shoes blog shares real stories from inside our home: moments of hope, heartbreak, and healing. These are the voices of moms, staff, volunteers, and supporters walking together through crisis toward the life God intended.

Whether you're looking to serve, give, or pray, this is the place to witness what happens when love shows up in the middle of someone's hardest season.
