What Others Are Saying About Mary Beth...

" What an inspiration Marybeth was to our group!  She spoke directly from her heart to ours, sharing her hopes and dreams, encouraging us to dream, too. We were grateful for her vulnerability, her willingness to be real and open, sharing stories that reflected her daily walk with God. In response, we were encouraged to walk closer to Him, too. "
Kim Bouchillon, West Palm Beach, FL

" I believe that the weekend retreat with Marybeth helped me to understand more about my past.  She helped me to see my loving Heavenly Father in a brand new way.  What a life-changing experience that retreat was!  I am thankful that Marybeth has so much faith in God.  Her obedience helped mold me into the better Christian I am today. " 
JoAnn Heaton, South Carolina retreat attendee

" Marybeth truly was a gift from God on our weekend retreat. She fit right in with our group of ladies as if she was a long-time friend. She encouraged us to remove our masks and be more "real" with each other. We were so blessed to have her share her heart with us. "
Kristine Simpson, Joliet, IL
