For more than 25 years, Cindy Shipley Blaske, Chrissy and Kolleen sat around the table and studied the Word of God together. They were dear friends who often cried together, and loved living life together. They solved many of the world's problems together, too. Well, probably not the world's, but they did work together to solve the difficulties in each of their own personal worlds. 

Cindy was a single mom of twins, often struggling with the ability to provide all that her kids needed. She wasn't afraid to go without, for her kids or for another single mom. When Cindy passed away from lung cancer a few years ago, her last words to Kolleen were, 'We're going to change the world, you and I."  Yes, Cindy, that's what we're going to do. 

The day after Christmas in 2021, after learning that two single moms often have no gift under the Christmas tree for
themselves, God began to reveal His intentions for changing the world for single moms through Cindy's influence by hosting an event in Cindy's honor and God's glory: A Very Merry Cindy Christmas.
