Join us as Reelika Schulte shares her story with us. Reelika was born in the Soviet Union. She was always an A+ student destined for great things. Reelika found herself in a toxic relationship and found out that she was pregnant. When she was 6 months pregnant, she decided to leave the relationship. Her loving parents took her in to help support her and her son. During this, Reelika struggled with feeling like a failure and felt a lot of shame. But she always had faith & knew God wanted more for her.
It was a turning point in her life when she gave herself permission to feel loved again. After much prayer, God led her to an online dating site. And after a short time, she had a connection with a man through this site. The problem… she was in Northern Europe & he was in the US. But that didn't stop them from growing closer in their relationship. Reelika was actively seeking signs of confirmation from the Lord and He started giving her sign after sign. This wasn't just a husband for her, she wanted to make sure he was the perfect dad for her son.
After a planned "short" visit to the US, Reelika received a proposal for marriage! She left everything behind and started her new life. Five years later, they just celebrated their 5th wedding anniversary & recently added a new baby to the family! And Reelika's first son is best buddies with her husband! He never even remembers life without his new dad.
Thank you again to Reelika for sharing with us today!
