Our Story
A dream transformed an idea into REALITY!
It was our 5th wedding anniversary. We decided to go back to our honeymoon state of Tennessee. While there we decided to visit a pottering-making store in the design of an old-time cabin. We were in awe, so much so that we wandered around the cabin seemingly for hours observing the workmanship. Later that night while retreating to a good night’s rest, I began to dream.
In my dream, I am driving and Eric, my husband, is on the passenger’s side. I don’t remember why we were riding or where we were going, but what I do remember was that we were driving in pitch blackness and as we were driving along it seemed as though it was getting darker, and I could not understand how darkness (pitch blackness) could get any darker. But I remember fear coming all over me, so I closed my eyes, clinched the wheel, and began to pray. I do not remember the words, but I do remember thinking “this is the most ineloquent prayer I have ever prayed”. The words and sentences just did not seem to flow.
Jesus, the Name of Jesus is all I recall. But in the dream, we seemed to arrive at a cabin with plenty of dirt and gravel in front of it and were backed in. Then the dream stopped and I asked the Lord what the blackness meant. And he said, “you think since you can’t see, I can’t see”. Then I said, “Lord, you are the potter, I am the clay, mold me and “MAKE ME ANEW”’.
My mind immediately shifted toward starting a business in the name of the Lord on behalf of God’s children.
Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
Isaiah 43:18,19
The Vision
Being the primary cook for our family, I was so intimidated by the thought of relinquishing my traditional style of cooking. I cooked with 3 basic spices: salt, black pepper & seasoned salt. However, I soon learned that I had been sacrificing the Health of my family, because of my unwillingness to learn healthier ways of cooking. Upon continued prayer, study, fellowship, and stepping out in faith; the Lord revealed to my husband & me that it was time to share the little that we knew with others and what we have not learned he will bring others to fill in the gaps.
The Mission
To partner with God’s children in taking steps toward a healthier us by promoting healthy cooking classes, fitness education & wellness development opportunities.
