My name is Ellie Hope Collins and I am the founder of Hope Reclaimed, a divorce ministry for men and women experience divorce, betrayal, and trauma. I live in St. Paul Minnesota with my husband, Austin. I love a good cup of coffee and a long run. Also, I’m pretty sure it’s impossible for me to pass a cute dog on the street without commenting on it.
In October 2016, my life was completely changed when I discovered my ex-husband’s long term affair. Although I was devastated and desperate for a restored marriage, that’s not what my ex-husband chose. A painful and challenging divorce followed, but I never lost faith that God would take the pain of the betrayal and create something beautiful. But it was through worship, prayer, and “Reclaiming” with Jesus, I have been healed (Hear my story here).
And now, I’m here to let you know that divorce, betrayal, and trauma don’t get to have the last word in your story! There is healing, there is redemption in Jesus, and there is always Hope.
