The New Eve Center Website & Cinny’s Blog Debut

This year, Eve Center board members and employees have been hard at work, taking an active role in the growth, development and overall improvement of Eve Center. Our Director of Marketing, Terrah Kocher has taken a lead role in developing a strategic marketing plan for Eve Center, which includes newsletter content, social media campaigns (supported by Sheli Tobias) and --Are you ready? - -

Rebranding the EVE CENTER WEBSITE! Yes! This fall, Eve Center will be launching a brand new website. The design will be clean, organized, social media friendly and packed with Eve Center news, events, investor information, volunteer highlights, and more. Our fearless leader – Cinny Roy – will be writing her thoughts and ideas in the very first Eve Center Blog. It’s so exciting and all in His Glory. Here is a sneak peak at Cinny’s first blog post. Expect great things in 2012 – Our God has been good and gracious to His daughters.

EVE CENTER BLOG, POST #1

Bent at the waist picking beans, I recognize vagabond weeds have infiltrated my garden! Yet as I move to swiftly rid the row of the invaders, my hand stops. If I rip out the weed, my beloved bean plant will fall over, putting the under developed beans in the dirt with the bugs, bending the stalk, weakening the plant bringing a premature ending to the bountiful harvest!

Lesson? There always is with God’s creation! Our enemies are in our very midst. Sometimes we need those around us who we don’t like and in our humanness, judge to be of no or less value in our lives. If everything - and everyone - is created by God, then everything and everyone is valuable to God.

There is a godly purpose for everything and everyone in my life’s ‘garden.’ So before I go wildly and righteously yanking out all weeds, I will be mindful to appreciate possible benefits of what is planted by God in my garden.

Volunteer Highlight - Lesa Lane

Eve Center Volunteer Peer Counselor & ARMS Coordinator

Age 49 | Attends Impact Church | Monfort Heights

Eve Center Volunteer since 2008, where she serves as a Volunteer Peer Counselor and leads the HEART program for domestic abuse recovery.

"I serve at the Eve Center because I believe this is where God has me at this time."

My story: I can only give God the Glory - I was in a 23 year abusive first marriage. God delivered me and has blessed my life. I am now married to a Spiritual leader, and we are equally yoked and serving God together. I have worked in counseling and teaching for much of my life. I do feel however that working with women is my calling. Favorite part of volunteering at Eve Center is that I help heal the brokenhearted. Isaiah 61. One of many favorite Bible Verses: Jeremiah 29:11.

Abuse Recovery Ministry and Services (www.armsonline.org ) promotes healing for women through education regarding the many faces of abuse: physical, mental, emotional, verbal and spiritual, the personal and relational impact and then recovery.

HOW – ‘Her Journey’ is a series of classes designed to help women walk through their healing from domestic violence and abuse. Classes are free and women may join at any time. While there are a total of 15 lessons, women may attend as long as they find the program helpful. The classes meet weekly.

WHAT - Based on Psalm 23 and divided into three sections: Through the Valley, Past the Shadows, and Into His Light. Any woman who has been, or thinks she may have been, or is in a difficult or abusive relationship should take these classes. They are truly life changing. Those attending will learn to understand the different forms of abuse and God’s heart for them in regards to this issue. Topics like denial, anger, depression, loneliness, and choices, along with many others, will be covered. Women will find a safe and supportive environment as they seek God’s will for their lives.
