EP. 112 | Heather Van Wormer [Love Does Hard Things]
Why would someone purposefully step into heartbreak? Why would they intentionally sacrifice time, money, and emotional/physical margin to care for strangers in need?
Sharing a piece of her unconventionally beautiful story at The Messy Table, as well as reminding us of true things, is Heather Van Wormer—a wife, foster mama (with a biological sweetie on the way), and pastor at Life.Church.
Several years ago, Heather chose to brave unchartered waters as a single foster mom. That decision not only impacted the kiddos—and the parents of the kiddos—she has fostered, but it’s also changed her.
“It’s going to be hard, but every ounce of heartbreak is worth it.” —Heather Van Wormer
