From Nicole
Wanted to thank you for sharing about your bracelet story. When we got home from the retreat I had to empty the guest room and a few closets we have always used for storing things in an organized fashion in order to make room for all of Joanna's things. Without a good place to put everything now, my OCD self had a little meltdown. I realized unless this was going to be the first of many meltdowns to come with a lot of changes to our 17 year routine, God was going to have to get a quick handle on on my heart. My watch battery died that day, and I had to wait around in a jewelry store while it was fixed. God reminded me then of your bracelet and I saw the perfect one! So far, peaceful bracelet moments have taken place! Of course it was a bit awkward when I was cooking the first night with my husband and Joanna and he said, "When did you get that bracelet? You never buy jewelry, that's weird!" Now he understands and we had a good laugh.

I had an amazing time with the Lord at Camp Allen at the Central Women's Retreat this past weekend. I am so thankful for the presenters, the worship leader and the staff that made this precious event happen. My life is so much richer now. Thanks to Peggy Osborne, Lauren Osborne and Courtney Osborne for sharing their hearts and life experiences with us all, encouraging us to abide in the Lord. Priceless. Thank you, Jesus!

Thanks so much for contributing to the success of our Women’s Ministry Fall Kickoff event held September 11th! Your encouraging and motivating presentation on how our ladies can SHINE for Christ in every area of their lives was exactly what we were looking for. We had over 100 women of all ages who not only enjoyed your message but also were inspired by the awesome worship, ministry opportunities offered, and of course, great fellowship. Can’t wait to have you back again!

I just wanted to thank you for leading this Bible study!!!
This past week my daughter had several tests at school. She is a 4th grader and by the end of the day she was worn out. By me knowing when to take the "pauses" and restart our communication/listening to each other it helped so much! Just giving her a hug or snuggling to unwind was huge! I have grown to know that when she is tired, her listening skills go down as well.
Hearing the techniques provided through You Are My Treasure have been a blessing in our house and family for myself and my daughter.

Loved the lesson that was taught today by Peggy, I had seen the nature video she shared before but it made me cry again today. So, I put up a hammock that we have never used and made my kids play outside.They had a blast! Thankful for the reminder to put down our electronics and get outside!

I have been meaning to message you and tell you that the Conflict Resolution book, New Beginnings, has been such a blessing in our home. My youngest has some major meltdowns. We've sat down several times when he is in one of his angry tantrums where he is most likely hurt a sibling. The book usually starts very one sided and the youngest cannot even do the deep breathing. My favorite is the prayer page. I usually have to do the prayer for the youngest but it is SO beautiful to watch that anger begin to soften. I love it! Watching the Lord work in his little heart is so precious. By the end they are giggling and all is forgiven. I do appreciate the work that you guys are doing. These concepts we are teaching by using your tools will be valuable to them throughout their lives. Thank you so much!

Wow wow WOW!!! The box arrived this evening but I have only just gotten around to opening it now. I absolutely LOVE everything!!! The placemats are exceptional and I am thrilled to have them in time for Easter. The teaching resources look fab too and I am excited to use them. It would be great to facetime at some point... very keen to get your ideas on using these resources. Thank you so much for the extra ROCK poster and poem also... great.
Thanks again for all you have done to get these to me safely and in time for Easter, and for keeping in contact throughout. Fabulous service and outstanding products.
Thank you!
Have a wonderful Easter celebrating our risen King!
