Sharing From the Heart Ministry's
First Year in Review...
2011 was a great year of blessings for Sharing From the Heart Ministry! As always, God promised and He delivered!! As I look back over the past year I want to make sure I share the blessings:
I am blessed to have a volunteer team of women serve with me in this ministry. Shauna Purnell (Maranatha Church), Sue Medaglia (Living Rock Bible Church), Rev. Alinda Eggleston (Set Free By the Word Ministry), Lisa Huyett (Gap Community Church), and Lori Moore (Gap Community Church).
Our first event was a HUGE success! On Mother's Day weekend we hosted Ladies Spa Day Spectacular and God kept bringing more and more women. He blessed us with double our goal!! Ladies were pampered with manicures, facials, massages and physician provided healthy living tips. What a great morning!
I had the opportunity to speak at retreats and churches throughout the year. It was an honor to deliver God's Word to His daughters throughout the area!
Our Come Away My Beloved Candelight Extravaganza was another hit! Worship, food, games and the Word were enjoyed by all. A special time of prayer concluded our evening.
I was humbled and grateful to help lead some very special women through the healing process from past life choices. What an honor it was to celebrate their victorious freedom!
Sharing From the Heart ministry's own retreat, 'According to His Power' gave opportunities for women to get away from it all and bask in God's blessings for an entire weekend. Worship, the Word, fellowship, food, games, walks, late night talks, communion, special individualized prayer and blessings, and who can forget Footsie Tootsie? My favorite time of the entire weekend was watching God soften hearts as women came to the altar to lay down past hurts and current burdens.
Extreme Couponing in Excellence classes were well attended and women learned how to save substantial amounts of money in their grocery budgets.
In addition to this, there were many opportunities to speak individually with women as I provided God's comfort, compassion, encouragement and Word. God has been so good to us in 2011! I can't wait to see what He has in store for 2012!! Make sure you sign up on my blog so you don't miss anything!
To God Be the Glory, Great Things He Has Done!!

2012 Happenings
One of the practical ways we help women provide for their households and fulfill a portion of the Proverbs 31 woman is through our Extreme Couponining in Excellence workshops. Many women attended our 2011 classes and have reported great results.
I'm excited to announce I will present additional workshops in 2012 at various locations throughout Chester and Lancaster counties as well as extending beyond these two counties to other areas. Also new in 2012- instead of the classes lasting multiple evenings, I am replacing them with a full day foundational workshop. There will be a special Extreme Couponing in Excellence Workshop 'Christmas Shopping Edition' on October 27th which will present ways to save money on your Christmas gift list!
Head on over to my blog at www.sharingfromtheheart.net and sign up so you don't miss announcements of upcoming workshops! While you are visiting the blog, make sure you check out some of the extreme couponing trips I've posted!

Event 4 a Cause- What You Don't Know Event
Would you know if someone in your family, at work, at church or somewhere else is being abused? Most likely not. Are you being abused and need to know what to do? This special evening is designed to bring awareness of domestic violence by providing information and resources in a confidential setting. This event is for all women, not just those that find themselves in abusive relationships. Every woman needs to be educated because what you don't know can and will hurt you or someone you know and love. This event includes resources, food, movie and personal testimony. All details will be on my blog.
