Life on Earth Ministries
She is precious to God. Her voice matters. Her story is not over.
The Message
Before she was defined by what happened to her, before she was reduced to her worst moment or her greatest mistake, she was known. She was seen. She was named.
This ministry exists because the Church needs to hear that message again. And because women sit in pews, scroll through their phones, hide behind their smiles, and forget it.
Why This Ministry Exists
Every one of them came to Him carrying something the world had already used against her. Not one of them left the same.
John 4
Other people knew her history. Jesus saw her humanity.
Jesus saw her humanity.
John 8
Others were ready to condemn her.
Jesus protected her dignity.
Luke 8
Her past didn’t disqualify her.
Jesus gave her a future.
Mark 5
Society considered her unclean.
Jesus called her ‘Daughter.’
One Word
Not damaged goods.
Not difficult.
Not too much.
Not worthless.
Daughter.
Isaiah 41:10- So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
HE IS NOT DISTANT FROM THIS
And sometimes the Church was one of those people.
Jesus does not look at a suffering woman from a distance. Our Savior understands suffering.
And the Church should never use Scripture to pressure a woman into staying silent about abuse.
FOR PASTORS AND CHURCH LEADERS
She sings the worship songs.
She volunteers.
She smiles when people ask how she’s doing.
Her husband may even be sitting beside her.
And nobody knows.

OUR MISSION
Life on Earth Ministries is a nonprofit based in South, Florida. We support women, children, widows, and single mothers facing abuse, family hardship, or financial crisis.
We help women take practical next steps through education, essential resources, encouragement, and connections to community support. Our growing work also helps women affected by toxic and abusive relationships find their voice and rebuild a sense of worth through books, guided group conversations, and training for churches and community leaders.
Life on Earth Ministries was inspired by my mother. She came from Cuba in 1960 and raised four children on her own after a painful relationship with my father. I saw her strength, but I also saw how much she carried. Her story shaped my desire to stand beside women facing hardship and help them know they are not alone.

Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.
MATTHEW 25:40
A baby may need 8–12 diaper changes a day, and families can use nearly 3,000 diapers in the first year.
Nearly 1 in 2 U.S. families struggle with diaper need, according to the National Diaper Bank Network.
When diapers run short, a parent may feel pressure to leave a baby in a wet or soiled diaper longer. That can irritate the baby’s skin. A lack of diapers can also make it harder to use child care and get to work.
Every baby deserves a healthy start, and every mother deserves support. Through our Diaper & Baby Essentials Drive, we collect diapers to ease a practical burden and remind a family they are not alone.
We partner with churches to teach about emotional abuse, spiritual manipulation, healthy boundaries, and compassionate ways to support women facing difficult relationships.
Healing begins when a woman knows she is seen, believed, and worthy of care. Life on Earth Ministries brings education, faith-centered encouragement, and practical connections to women affected by toxic relationships.
When a woman faces abuse, financial hardship, or a sudden change at home, even the next step can feel overwhelming.
We offer compassionate guidance and help connect women and families with community resources for immediate needs and longer-term support. We listen, help identify options, and remind each woman she doesn’t have to face the crisis alone.
You Don’t Have to Figure It Out Alone
It can feel scary to say out loud what you’ve been going through. You don’t need the right words or a plan before you reach out. A Free Clarity & Support Call is a place to talk, feel heard, and explore one possible next step—at your pace.
No matter where you live or what season of life you’re in, you have a place at Bible Chicks. Women from around the world gather on Zoom every Saturday at 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time to study God’s Word, share honest conversation, pray, and encourage one another.
Come as you are. You don’t have to have all the answers, just a heart open to growing in faith alongside other women.
Through guided discussions and workbook studies, women can learn, reflect, and connect with others in a supportive setting.
When a woman needs more than a class or a book, we help her identify community resources and next steps for herself and her children.
Life on Earth Ministries is an official HOPE Florida Navigator, connecting families to resources and faith-based support internationally.

THE MOVEMENT
Hi, I’m Nancy.
I grew up watching my mother, who came from Cuba in the 1960’s fleeing from communist regime, she workedtwo jobs and raise four children while figuring so much out on her own. Her strength shaped me. My own experience in a harmful relationship taught me how easily a woman can lose her voice while trying to hold everything together.
Today, I’m married and the mother of three grown daughters. I founded Life on Earth Ministries to stand beside women facing hardship and abuse. I wrote Your Worth Was Never Negotiable and its workbook to say, “I see you. I hear you. What happened to you matters.”
My hope is to help build a movement where women find their voices, churches listen, and silence no longer protects abuse. You don’t have to share your story before you’re ready, but you don’t have to carry it alone. And if Spanish is the language you feel most comfortable speaking, hablo español con fluidez.
Whatever brought you here, you’re welcome. I’d be honored to hear your story.I know what it’s like to lose yourself while trying to hold a relationship together, and I’ve devoted my life to helping women find their voice and remember their worth.”
After discovering her husband’s affair in an ordinary moment, a woman’s entire life is rewritten in an instant. This reflection speaks tenderly to anyone who’s been betrayed, showing how Jesus understands that pain, grieves with us, and proves our worth was never defined by someone else’s betrayal.
Using the image of a helpless “cast” sheep, this devotional reframes what it means to be lost. Drawing from John 10 and Luke 15, it shows Jesus as the Good Shepherd who comes looking for us, calls us by name, never runs, and holds us securely.
For every woman wondering if God saw what happened to her, this gentle, Scripture-based guide explores injustice, revenge, and the ache of not being believed. Through honest reflection questions and practical exercises, it invites you to set boundaries, entrust justice to God, and begin rebuilding your own beautiful next chapter.

SPEAKING
Awaken the Church. Equip women. Restore worth.
Your Worth Was Never Negotiable is more than a book. It is the beginning of a movement to help women who have lived through emotional, mental, or physical abuse find their voice and remember their God-given worth.
If you have walked through this pain, lead a women’s ministry, or serve as a pastor with a heart to help women heal, I invite you to bring this message to your church. Through Scripture, honest conversation, fellowship, and unity, women can begin to speak about their experiences and take steps toward healing.
The companion workbook gives each woman space to reflect and grow. I also offer a Facilitator’s Guide to help leaders guide group conversations, along with training for churches and ministry teams ready to begin.
Let’s bring this message to the women in your church.
Contact Nancy to Get Started Here
Helping women reclaim identity after toxic relationships.
Recognizing domestic abuse that leaves no visible bruises.
Understanding spiritual manipulation inside relationships.
What Christ’s interactions with women teach the modern Church.
Trauma bonds, fear, financial dependence, and the realities of leaving.
How churches can support women and children after abuse.
To every woman once told she was too much. You are not alone. Countless women have walked paths like yours. Some ahead of you. Some beside you. Some are still behind you, waiting for someone courageous enough to turn around and say. Me too. Together, your stories form something stronger than silence. A community that understands. That supports. That lifts each other up without ever needing to be asked.
Pause for a moment. Let yourself say it loudly. I AM WORTHY! You were created for more! God has the beginning and final say.
Psalm 139:13-16: ‘For you created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made. ‘
