Tiny Triumphs: The Power of Small Steps 

When life feels overwhelming, it’s easy to think that only bold, grand actions can lead to change, but true healing and growth often come from the small, steady steps we take each day.

Choosing to get out of bed when it feels impossible, reaching out to a friend for support, or pausing to take a single deep breath—these moments may seem insignificant, but they hold immense power. 

Each small step is a quiet victory, a testament to your strength and resilience. They build momentum, like ripples growing into waves, reminding you that progress doesn’t have to be fast to be meaningful. Celebrate these tiny triumphs, for they are the foundation of lasting transformation. 

Remember, the journey of healing is not measured by leaps, but by the courage to take the next small step forward.

Healing doesn’t erase the past—it empowers us to live beyond it. 

It’s not about forgetting the wounds, but about reclaiming the strength to move forward, free from their grip.

Over the past nine years, nearly 700 women have found renewal at our Annual Retreats, around 75 have completed our transformative S.H.A.P.E. Program, and over 1100 have joined our bi-weekly gatherings. 

We welcome all women seeking healing and support.

At Mending The Scarred, we create spaces where hearts connect and healing begins. 

There’s something special about coming together in person—sharing a meal, hearing encouraging words, and simply being with others who get it.

But if you can’t make it out, that’s okay. Our online prayer group is always open—a space to pray, talk, listen, and just be—wherever you are.

We’re not meant to do life alone. Let’s walk through it together.

More Than Just Hats: A Gathering of Minds and Hearts

Orlando—English Speaking Group | May 17th, 2025

A delightful symphony of laughter, heartfelt conversations, and vibrant hats filled the room on May 17th as the Orlando English-speaking group gathered for our much-anticipated fellowship: “Hats Off for a Tea and Talk; Understanding the Fight for Our Thoughts.”

Ladies arrived in charming hats—some elegantly store-bought, many lovingly handmade and uniquely decorated. It was a colorful display not only of creativity but also of individuality and inner reflection. 

The heart behind the hats? A powerful message: just as we choose how to adorn our hats with flowers, colors, and embellishments, we also have the ability to choose which thoughts we allow to take residence in our minds.

This theme set the tone for a profound and intimate time of sharing. We were divided into four groups to reflect on how our thought lives affect our actions, our emotions, and our spiritual walk. 

The discussions were raw, real, and restorative—reminders that the battle for our thoughts is one worth engaging in, with the support of Scripture, community, and God's truth.

The room was filled with warmth—not just from the tea—but from the unity and strength of women determined to renew their minds daily.

We left inspired, encouraged, and perhaps with a renewed appreciation for both a good hat and a godly thought life.
