Hi! I am Shannon, wife to an amazing husband, Jim. Mother to three grown kids, each amazing in their own right spread out around the world.
So I officially have an “empty nest” and some days I’m not sure how I feel about that. I am a writer, have been my whole life. I have two books DREAMING WITH A HEALTHY HEART, and THE ASCENDING PATH, BOTH available on Amazon. I also write monthly snail mail mission letters called “Grace Journeys” you can find out more about that and other writings and publishing information on houseofactspress.com.
I love the power that words hold, to set free and to bring truth and beauty and to stretch the imagination. I love to knit, bake, and gather around my kitchen table, to grow flowers, read books, write letters and savor a good cup of coffee. I also love to travel around the world where ever the Lord sends to love on and learn from His children.
We currently live in Southern Illinois on a 15 acre wooded hill in a house I affectionately call the big house in the little woods. But a lot is changing for us in 2024, including location. We passionately love Jesus and taking that love to others is our number one focus. Thank you for joining us as we share our heart, and life at home and around the world with you.
