Within these pages is the truth of how God sees us - beautiful, of great value, dearly beloved, treasured, without flaw. When we begin to forget or start to question this infallible truth, remember that His words say otherwise. ❤️ Song of Solomon 4:7

As @bethanyhamilton so perfectly puts it, "I’m such a big advocate for all the tools that can help support us in our life, but when we don’t have our faith in God all those tools can only do so much." It's not by our own strength, but by His alone.

“I would describe the retreat with the word FRIENDSHIP. I think of the C.S. Lewis quote, “Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another: ‘What! You too? I thought I was the only one.’” - Sarah Garbers Read her full story: instagram.com/p/Cx396dDPK5f/…

Let the countdown begin! We are just one month away from our men's Forge Retreat held in Del Mar, California and we couldn't be more excited. #TheForge #TheForgeRetreat2023 #limbdifference #amputee #SanDiego

For many attendees, the fitness sessions are their first time returning to the gym (or ever!) and we get to see them come to life while experiencing what is possible despite their limb difference. To donate to the October retreat fitness fund, go to beautifullyflawedfoundation.com/giving-opportu…

There's nothing better than conquering a fear and riding a wave! We can hardly wait for this year's Beautifully Flawed attendees to enjoy all that is surf day in exactly 1 month from today! 🌊 #beautifullyflawed #beautifullyflawedretreat2023 #limbdifference #amputee #surfing

To pull off this remarkable event, we need your help. We seek to raise $5,000 to make this special banquet a reality for both of our October retreats. Would you be willing to partner with us to make this evening possible? Go to beautifullyflawedfoundation.com/giving-opportu… to give to this fund.

The banquet is a treasured tradition at our Beautifully Flawed and Forge retreats. There's no better way to honor and celebrate our attendees, and seal all that God's done in the week, than to host a beautiful banquet dinner their honor on the final evening together.

Inspiring hope to overcome! This is the mission and heartbeat of the Beautifully Flawed Foundation. Through our programs, we come alongside young women and men who’ve suffered from traumatic limb loss or were born with a limb difference. Learn more at beautifullyflawedfoundation.com
