Fountain Hills, AZ

Group Leader: Jody Sullins

Jody writes, “I believe the Lord is using this group to meet needs of loneliness and connection. Here are some testimonies from a few of our gals that have recently moved to AZ….”

Tricia - moved here recently from Chicago

In June I made the move to Arizona, leaving my kids, my friends, my work, and everything familiar. The reason for the change was that I remarried my husband after being apart for over 24 years. As exciting as it was to reconnect with him, the move came with some heavy emotions as I was no longer just a phone call away from my kids. …this study has helped me to put words to my emotions. It’s also been a great reminder to continually press into God and pray through my feelings. We all know “feelings” lie and we are never alone in our experiences. I’m thankful to Susan Miller for writing the book as it puts things in perspective for me. I’m also thankful to Jody Sullins for leading the class with a smile and a warm heart each week. 

Maureen - moved here from Long Island with her daughter

I look forward to the group every week. Jody is a sheer joy. She is truly a woman of God, very comforting and helpful. It really helps to hear others explain their feelings. It makes you feel not so alone. Susan Miller’s book has been like my best little companion. She brings The Lord into it in such a creative imaginative way which makes you feel so reassured. He has got us, it’s His plan and He will make a way, He will not fail us! We are reminded to be patient, stay faithful and trust. This study has helped me grow stronger in my walk on my new path and deeper in my faith.

April - moved here with her mom from Long Island

This group has been such a blessing to me and my mom as we just moved here and have been feeling all the challenging impacts of a big move. Jody and this group have been such a big help in navigating our new life here. Fellowship and being part of a group is so important to help feel supported and at home.
