Summary

On today’s episode, Maria Shanlian from the Birds on a Wire group in Wayne County, OH joins Karen and Sunny to share what happened in her community when she and a friend said yes to God’s prompting to pour into the moms in their community. Maria shares the hesitations they had, how God confirmed this calling, and how they went from 35 moms to more than 125 moms in just two years. We think what’s going on in Wayne County is inspiring and we are praying hearts are stirred by this conversation!  For more on starting a BOAW group in your community, visit birdsonawiremoms.com/groups
