Welcome Sisters!! I'm Heather and my favorite names are Daughter, wife and Mama. Everything else about me is icing on the cake. I've been a daughter of God my whole life however July of 2015 was when The Holy Spirit took me to a new place, broke off some chains I was never meant to carry and told me personally in the process of washing dishes that I was His daughter, I am free and I am loved. And ever since then I have been wild + free! I used to see myself as a timid, victim, helpless girly girl who couldn't say no and hated confrontation however, I see myself way differently now.. I see myself looking a little bit more like Arwen the elf from the Lord of the rings series! Strong, powerful, fearless and joyful in The Lord! Not defined by my past or future however, I'm simply perfected by Jesus. I believe He wants this for all of His daughters.

I am a forever newlywed with my best friend Leon. He's my grizzly bear. The apples to my pie. The whip cream to my coffee. He makes this life way more enjoyable. He's my listener and challenger to seek first The Kingdom of God and His righteousness. Together we have two beautiful girls that we are raising  to become young women after God's own heart! We proudly embrace them as the blessings they are and we look forward to having more! One of my passions is showing the world just how much children are a blessing from the Lord and how they ought to be valued and treasured.

I'm a lover of Autumn walks, Journals, ink pens, all things artistic, chilly mornings, whip cream with my coffee, snowy mountains,Matthew 6:33, Thrift stores and coffee shops.

I'm passionate about being a blessing to moms and with that passion I decided to start my own business with crocheted items, home decor and mug art to sell and some of the profit goes to a mom in need.

I love to sing, write music, read, and love people! I feel as though I have a particular calling to minister to moms and encourage them to thrive!

Here is where I write encouragement for moms! As a mom, I know I can use all the encouragement I can get and I honestly get deeply encouraged in sharing with you. My prayer is that Arrows & Warriors not only builds a sisterhood of moms who come together but I pray each time after reading a article you get a nice fresh cup of renewal and a deeper realization that you are loved, thought of and never alone and never forget that awesome truth that God is for us and He's on our side.
SARAH TEAL

Hello beautiful mommies! Im sarah! Let me just first say i feel so honored that my beautiful friend heather would ask me to be a part of this awesome ministry. My heart is for babies and fighting for life is something huge that God has placed on my heart. My desire is to portray to everyone what amazing blessings from the Lord children are. I pray that the Lord would use me to edify and encourage mommies in their walk as wives and mothers-with Jesus at the center. Now some more about my little family! Im a wifey to my sweetheart Louis! We've been married for 4 years and i can easily say its been the best 4 years. Im so thankful for my hubby, for working so hard so i can fulfill my dream of being a stay at home mama.
I have two beautiful little girls the Lord has blessed me with. My sweet Selah Abigail who is a hilarious and very talkative two year old. She keeps us on our toes and brings us so much laughter.
My newest little blessing is miss Elliana Joy. Only 4 days new as i type this. She is sweet and snuggly with the softest baby hair and the squeakiest little voice. She brings us so much joy and is the perfect addition to our little family. I cant help but thank my amazing heavenly daddy for blessing me more than i could ever imagine. My cup runneth over!


WHAT IS ARROWS AND WARRIORS? 

Arrows and warriors is an online Ministry that was created for only moms. We are up and going from sun up to sun down and some of us have been up 24 hours straight. Motherhood. It's exhausting. It's messy. It's frustrating and sometimes annoying but there is nothing more beautiful. 

 We want to be there for you in those moments when you want to give up and remind you that you are doing an amazing job doing what you're doing. We want to encourage you that God is for you and He loves you. And in those moments when you're having the best day ever we want to fill your cup with some more encouragement. We are a family of moms that come to you in the comfort of  your own living room. We hope you'll join us and let us know you're here!

BEHIND THE NAME.

Arrows and Warriors came from Psalms 127:3-5  "Behold children are a heritage from The Lord, The fruit of the womb is a reward. Like Arrows in the hand of a warrior, so are the children of one's youth. Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them."

 In this name we want to remind our Sisters that children are a blessing. We live in a world where children are often looked down upon where they are looked at as a inconvenience or annoyance. However God and His kingdom thinks the highest of these little humans we are raising and He loves them so very much. 

We also want to remind you that you as God's precious daughter are a Warrior.. You're not just a mom in sweats with a top not. You are a warrior for God's kingdom raising up little arrows to become warriors for God's Kingdom. How awesome is that?

 
 OUR BELIEFS AND VALUES.
  • That there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God The Holy Spirit. (Isaiah 44:8, 1 John 5:7)
  • That Jesus was and is The Son of God. (John 3:16)
  • That the gifts of The Holy Spirit, as enumerated in 1 Corinthians 12 to 14 are for the church today.
  • The Bible s the inspired word of God, and it contains the truth we desperately need to thrive in Motherhood
  • Mothering is a valuable and one of the most important callings of God.
  • A personal relationship with Jesus is a need for thriving as a mom.
  • The Perfect mom doesn't exist. Jesus did perfect on our behalf and that we can take joy in knowing that in Christ we are His perfection and that's enough.
  • We were not created to Mother alone. We need to encourage one another daily. 
  • We are not sinners saved by Grace. We are God's children who have been saved by grace. God saved us from sin.
  • Motherhood doesn't get easier and it changes often. It only gets richer as we focus and turn to God and mediate on His word as we learn to be more dependent on His Hope and not ours.
  • We believe in the supernatural such as the power of tongues ( 1 Corinthians 14:2) The power of healing and that it is never God's will for premature death, miscarriages or illness but it is only His will to bring life and life more abundantly.  (John 10:10)  (Exodus 23:26)
