Meet Christi Wilson. She lives in Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin.
Christi is the wife to her wonderful husband Gary, mom/step-mom to her amazing kids Tiffani, Heather, William, and Joshua, and grandmother to her awesome grandchildren Michael, Brandon, Makenzie, Brooklyn, Kyler, Alaina, Jayden, Austin, Kylee, and CJ.
Christi has been involved in Women’s Ministries for ten years. She was part of the Women’s Team with Christian Motorcyclists Association for nearly 9 years. She has been coordinating Online Bible Study/Prayer Groups on Facebook, since 2011, when she created the first Facebook Prayer Groups for Proverbs 31 Ministries. The Lord led her into starting her own online Bible study ministry, and that’s when Girlfriends Coffee Hour was born!
After over five years of being empty-nesters, Christi and her husband became foster parents for children in crisis. Although foster parenting can be quite challenging, the rewards are far more numerous! This was truly a God-thing! Coming from a background of physical and emotional abuse, she can relate to the hurts that many of these children go through in their life!
She also loves to read, study the Word, cook, and play word games.
She gave her life to Jesus on March 23, 1984, when He saved her from suicide, drugs, and alcohol. She believes that without Jesus, we are nothing. He is faithful to forgive and cleanse us from all unrighteousness in our lives and accepts us right where we are in our lives…blemishes and all.
