In Her Own Words
“I want women to know that you can make progress and still have setbacks. You can be strong and still struggle. You can be grateful for how far you’ve come and still grieve how much harder the journey turned out to be than you expected. Life is not linear. And sometimes, the victory isn’t that you never find yourself in a difficult situation again. Sometimes, the victory is recognizing that you deserve better and having the courage to choose differently.”
These are the beautiful words of a 2026 Fellowship Housing graduate. They capture something every mom who walks through the doors of Fellowship Housing comes to know: growth is rarely a straight line, and strength often looks like choosing yourself again and again.
A Morning to Celebrate
We had the honor of celebrating five graduates at the latest graduation. Each of these moms has spent two years doing the hard work of building a new legacy for her family: paying down debt, growing savings, setting goals, and pressing on through the setbacks along the way.
In 2026, 23 moms will complete their journey with Fellowship Housing. That’s 23 families stepping into their next chapter with new tools, new confidence, and a whole community cheering them on.
Thank You to Our Community
A celebration like this doesn’t happen without generous partners and friends. Our heartfelt thanks to:
Amuzgo Mexican Cuisine, for the amazing taco bar spread that fed our graduates, their families, and guests.
Willow Creek Care Center, for opening up their Kid Zone, Care Center Hospitality room, and The Link space so we could celebrate together.
Alyssa Murdock, for capturing the beautiful photos our moms will treasure.
Our wonderful volunteers, Ed Burton, Sydney Parks, Renee and her son Ryan, and Sugey, who spent the morning with Fellowship Housing children so their moms could fully enjoy connecting, eating, and listening to inspiring mothers!
To Our Graduates
Congratulations! You did the hard thing, even on the days it felt impossible. Your courage is building a new legacy, one your children will carry forward.
And to every mom reading this who is in the middle of her own hard season: progress and setbacks can live side by side. You are strong, even when you struggle. You deserve better, and you don’t have to walk this road alone.
