“I’ve been privileged and deeply blessed to meet and get to know many women from several nations around the world who have chosen to make God’s plan and purpose the focus of their life. I want to share these beautiful friends with you...”
How it all began
I stood at the side of the room watching all the Christian leaders chat about the adventures that were coming their way. Envy rose up as I had longed and prayed for overseas ministry opportunities for several years.
Then she walked up to me, Eileen Stewart Rhude, a long-time Canadian ministry leader. “Would you pray about coming to Asia with me? I need some help with teaching and I’d like you to consider this trip.”
After much discussion and prayer, my husband, Bob, and I answered the call and set out with Eileen on a month-long adventure to India, Thailand, and Nepal. Although our time in Nepal was very short—just three days—our hearts were filled with love for the people and their hunger for God.
Our work in Nepal started ten years after the 1999 birth of our ministry, originally called Seasoned WIth Salt, then renamed to Words To Inspire in 2014. As I looked back in my journal to check on our 1999 ministry goals, I noted: To be an international ministry within ten years. And so it began. What a mighty God we serve!
