May this testimony inspire all who will read it to understand you are not alone nor are you invisible - you are seen and heard.

Having traveled from the Midwest to California in search of a better lifestyle for her and her then drug-addict husband, Cornelia Elmore was put into an adventure by God that would literally transform her into the mirror image of Christ-likeness.

I Grew Where I Was Planted is her story of being a Midwesterner transplanted to a state in which she knew not one soul-not one. Her faith in God would direct her toward the better life she was determined to find.

Being made homeless twice by her husband's addiction and not able to maintain housing with relatives, she finally divorced and is currently stable. All Glory to God!

I Grew Where I Was Planted is for those who would dare to leave a comfortable environment, family members, and a way of life that is familiar to go on an adventure completely unknown, totally walking by faith and not by sight!
