Today, I took the first step in a new venture. I have been looking for something to do that would help me feel useful and use my nursing skills. I am unable to work full-time due to Claire's seizures, and while I enjoy some aspects of staying home, it gets pretty boring sometimes. Thus, all the Frontierville posts on Facebook ;). It is also true that being an at-home mom offers NO validation! No one ever notices what I do until I DON'T do it! I have really missed feeling useful and appreciated. So I have decided to volunteer for a local ministry.
Hope Resource Center is a local crisis pregnancy center. It is the exact opposite of Planned Parenthood. It offers counselling based on biblical values, and gives clients a chance to make an informed decision about the best course of action for their lives. It does NOT encourage abortion. It gives the ladies tools that will be useful to them for the rest of their lives.
I look forward to being able to be a blessing to young women, and I pray that God will use me to show them His plan for their lives.

Good for you girl, what a blessing you will be and already are!
