2019 Graduate Update

“My husband and I have been married almost 13 years. We have ten young children – 9 biological, 1 adopted. People ask all the time how we do life with this many children. Honestly, before Mercy, I could not do life well with just me. I had an eating disorder I could not overcome, and I struggled daily to find hope. In my time at Mercy, God set me free from the eating disorder and instilled hope so deep within me. I have gone through hard, challenging and painful circumstances since Mercy. Some of those were out of my control and some were self-induced. Through any challenging time, I have been so grateful to have roots to come back to- the roots established in me at Mercy. I know that God loves and adores me, that He is for me and that there is always hope. I am passionate about helping instill hope, love, freedom, and identity in my children and in others I come into contact with everyday. I love living life passionately, and giving it all I’ve got – knowing that life is a gift I do not want to waste. Everyday is truly an adventure…an imperfectly perfect adventure!”
