K.B., Michigan "In your kitchen I learned about seasoning food. In your living room I reacquainted myself with the seasoning work of the Holy Spirit." S.O., Michigan "The program gives value to women who are homemakers and wives. The Bible study and cooking lessons improved my perspective on staying home with children. . . . The program is a good eye-opener and refresher to what is really important: God, husband, children, family, and friends." D.S, Minnesota "So many positive things have happened in my life since, and because of, my Apples of Gold summer. Much confidence was gained that went far beyond the kitchen. . . . This was truly a life changing experience!" L.D., Michigan "God knew I needed Apples of Gold. It is probably inconceivable to you to know how you and the mentors have touched the lives of Apples of Gold moms!" L.C., Michigan "I loved being with older women, finding out how much we have in common, and building relationships with a different generation." J.R., Michigan "Apples of Gold makes you focus on what is really important in your life. We discussed subjects I was not familiar with, like the real meaning of submission and purity. It certainly has changed the way I feel about them." D.H., Minnesota "Apples of Gold takes the warm atmosphere of the home and teaches how to extend it beyond the immediate family." Gail Hover Ledbetter Author, Family Fragrance
