Our Story
At the routine 16-week prenatal exam, Garrett and Emily found out that their daughter, Faith, had passed away.
In the middle of the pain and heartache of their loss, Garrett planned a date night for Emily to help them both be able to process through some of their emotions. Garrett, led by the Holy Spirit, wrote various Scripture-based prompts for them to pray and think through. Each prompt was tied to an expressive painting action.
When they finished, Emily said, “I think everyone could use something like this.”
That date night on May 24, 2022 led to the vision for Outward Expressions Art Ministries.
