Beth --

Hi, I am from the UK and am in a non-denominational church. During the past 4 years I have had somewhat of a sabbatical because we adopted our 2 girls. Let me tell you briefly that God was really in the placement of them to our home. We were at one of our darkest times thinking that no children would ever be placed with us and behind the scenes God was working. Praise God He worked everything out and is helping us through the journey of parenting!!

God has used the death of my MIL and finding the Fishbowl to mould me in the past year or so. I have found the friendship and wisdom of the ladies here a real blessing in my life and my husband has noticed the change.

God has challenged me to stop thinking about me and get out there to a dying world. I am slowly doing more of that. I am involved in the Toddler group at church, and a group of us are looking to expand that work with Dad's events, Ladies meetings etc. God has given me the Administration skills to do the publicity for these events. Also the times of discussion and prayer with the other ladies is great. I am studying a Child Development Course which has been good for me and given me an opportunity to use my brain but also get to meet people outside of church which is good for me.

Godsgirltmm --

Hi, I’m godsgirltmm, or Tammy. I have been married to my wonderful husband for 16 years. My husband serves as lead pastor in a Southern Baptist Congregation in Southeast Louisiana. We have three wonderful children who are a tremendous blessing in our life. My husband has been serving in vocational ministry for about four years. My husband is currently pastoring full time and attending seminary. I spend most of my time taking care of my family and hold a part time job as a receptionist two days a week. God has placed in me a desire to minister to others, in particular women and pastors' wives. I love the ministry of the fishbowl (pastorswives.org). It has been a tremendous blessing to me as I have stepped out into this very challenging calling and I pray that I may be used by God to help bless others in the same way!

mezzogirl --

Jada has been married to Jon, an Associate Pastor overseeing Worship and Arts in an Evangelical Free Church of America, since May 1999. In June 2003 their first child, a son, was born, followed shortly by a daughter born in March of 2005.

Jada surrendered to vocational ministry at age 18 and has served in several churches and para-church organizations in various capacities. She considers herself a ‘spiritual mut’ because of the various denominations she has been a part of throughout her life.

Currently, she is working at a local university teaching various classes in music. One of her greatest passions is the use of creative arts within the church and equipping and encouraging Worship Pastors and other arts leaders in the church, specifically women who serve in vocational ministry positions. Along with her husband, she is about to begin an incredible journey of pursuing a Doctorate in Worship Theology.

Having been raised a pk, serving on staff at churches and now married to a pastor, Jada has seen many facets of ministry life. She desires to use all the gifts that God has given her to serve the pastors’ wives who are part of this community so that they might find a safe place to share with others about their lives and interests.

U.N.Mama --

U.N. Mama has been a PK all her life. She and her husband moved to St. Petersburg, Russia in 1999 where they served as missionary Baptist missionaries for nearly seven years. They are now serving as stateside missionaries, planting churches in Minnesota. U.N. Mama and her husband have 3 children. All their children are from different heritages (Russia, El Salvador, and Guatemala), hence the nickname, "U.N. Mama". They plan to adopt another child sometime in the next few years. U.N. Mama joined the fishbowl many years ago while living in Russia. It was such a comfort to know there were other preachers wives out there who would pray for her and be there at the computer anytime she needed!
