Meet Amanda
I am Amanda B. Scott, a companion on this journey and a testament to the transformative power of faith after abortion.
In the vulnerability of my own brokenness, I found a path to completeness.
The echoes of my journey resonate with the truth that redemption is not just a promise; it is a lived experience.
Through the tapestry of faith and the gentle touch of God's love, I emerged from the darkness into light.

“I waited patiently for the LORD; he inclined to me and heard my cry. He drew me up from the pit of destruction, out of the miry bog, and set my feet upon a rock, making my steps secure. He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the LORD.”
— Psalm 40:1-3
