The Garden
a conversation between the Gardener and God
“And she asked Him, “What will it be like? The Kingdom?” and He said, “It is like a seed. A single grain of mustard seed. Which a woman took and sowed in her GARDEN. And it grew and it grew, and the birds of the air made nests in its branches.”
from the Mary Magdalene film based on Luke 13:18-19

If your answer is “Gardens” - The Garden might be for you.
The Garden is for Gardeners (women) giving glory to God. Bloom beyond perfectionism, grow in grace, and carry your cross by sowing mustard seeds that move mountains.
It takes many buds to make a flower bed; it takes many hands to make a garden. This is for sisters who's been called to come into community, growing alongside each other in faith.

Yet not I, but through Christ in me
Life is largely made up of the transitions in-between sowing a seed and seeing it Bloom. If we are attuned, God can guide us through transitions, and one of the most powerful way that He does this, is that He speaks through your fellow people spread all across the Earth.
All you have to do is position yourself in an intentional community aligned with where you are, and you shall receive more guidance from Him. God says, “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.” (Psalm 32:8)
Receiving God’s “loving eye on you” starts with you letting yourself be witnessed, seen, and loved as you grow the the garden of your life and find yourself the in-between seasons. They include, but are not limited to the dry season, the waiting season, the grinding season, the tests & trials season, and the spiritual warfare season.
Whatever transition you are experiencing, and whether you are not yet a Christian, a born again Christian, or a lifelong Christian, this community will welcome you with open arms. We believe God is with you regardless where you are on your faith-walk, it’s just about practicing feeling Him wherever He has planted your feet now.
Having personally grown from atheism, to new age spirituality, to being redeemed into Christianity, I have experienced how spiritual transitions and transformations can be incredibly challenging, but also bring the deepest and most profound life-altering revelations.
When you grow through transitions, it is tempting to go the walk alone with God, but His divine plan wasn’t for us to live in isolation. He created us to find belonging and bonding through our shared experience of growing through transitions and the many in-between’s. ”The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.” (Genesis 2:18)
Coming to Christ through the recovery of an accident, Jesus showed me the importance of COMMUNITY through the presence and the hands of the people that helped me. Community starts with a connection between you and God, and this unity then will Bloom Beyond into your other relationships. ”How wonderful and pleasant it is when brothers (and sisters) live together in harmony!” (Psalm 133:1)
In the Garden…
We practice giving Glory to God in our lives no matter which season we are in, and we let Him move us to Bloom Beyond life challenges in His time and in His Way. We do that by growing to be more Jesus-loving towards ourselves and others, and by honing our senses to hear, see, feel, and know The Holy Spirit, which is our compass. We focus on Blooming Beyond Perfectionism, Growing in Grace, and Carrying Our Cross.
What we all have in common inside The Garden community is that we are Truth Seekers committed to be vessels for God to connect, commune, and create through. That starts by softening into the arms of women of faith that sees you as a Gardener.
Together, we grow in faith, and by doing so, we Bloom Beyond any transitions. On the other side of the dark Enemy of this inner and outer world, is the light God, and so is the full potential of who we are an in Him. In all, we sow mustard seeds of faith that move mountains.

Got baptized in 2024 on 27th birthday.
