A dream come true 💫

*|MC_PREVIEW_TEXT|*

My dearest friends, I have some exciting news that I didn’t see coming for us in 2020. By now, we all should be used to the twists and turns that this year holds! But, this one is a good one Lullaby of Hope is in the process of building out office space within The City House! We have utilized their space for over a year now, hosting meetings, storing gift supplies and hosting packing parties. As their space developed more and they began housing tenants, God reminded me of a dream (really more of a vision!) four years prior. It was so vivid. I saw a winding tree lined road and a glimpse of the office space. It was so real that I began calling on properties where I thought it could be. My efforts led to a dead end. But, I didn’t forget that God had given me the dream. Conversations began with The City House board and it was quickly and easily determined that it would be a good fit for us both. I was pretty vulnerable to entrust them with my dream, but their response was perfect. They ushered us to the area in the building that they want to build out suites and grabbed a measuring tape. This is now the second time that I have been directly equipped by church leaders in regards to leading, growing and birthing Lullaby of Hope. It’s one thing to feel called and directed by God, it’s another thing to be cheered for without interrogations and stripped raw. The City House will become our new home. A central place where we can pray over the women that we serve, a place to host packing parties and to store our gifts, a place where we can bond and dream further, to work and fulfill gift orders and a place to showcase our mission to potential partners. If you’ve been around with us since the beginning, you know that we began small. Meeting women face to face, delivering gift baskets and gaining new friends. Year after year, God grew our small offerings. Obedience has always been our answer. God kept us slow and steady over the last eight years. What God has taught me through this gift of office space is that we have the responsibility to believe Him. That when He invites us into His future plans followed by a “not yet” (and years of waiting!) we can’t lose hope or discount His word. My faith has grown stronger, simply by this “dream come true”. We hope to have some sort of open house, maybe it will be virtual, but we want to share this exciting time with you! God willing, the space will be ready by October 2020. That is also pregnancy loss awareness month, it couldn’t come together any better! Keep dreaming,
