Lois' Story
Her children were 2, 5, 7, 9 & 11 years of age when her husband left. Like most single parents, she struggled with grief, loneliness, depression, anger and overwhelming responsibility.
It was a long grueling process of healing and recovery; but God was faithful to His Word every step of the way. Lois had to make many difficult choices, learn new parenting techniques, get back into the work force and balance a very limited budget. She started out hopeless, but ended up with a new vision!
Lois is now a minister, missionary, writer, and event speaker . . . sharing the hope, joy, peace, power, and promise she found in God’s Word.
Her children have grown into responsible, caring adults and some are parents themselves. Best of all, they are children of God.
