Mission

We are a non-profit Christian organization committed to walking with women toward freedom through mentoring, connection with resources, and supportive education in Minneapolis/St. Paul and the surrounding areas. So if she is in an abusive relationship, experiencing an unplanned pregnancy, depressed, wearing thin as a single mom, or being sexually exploited, we are here to walk alongside her to a place of hope and freedom physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

Our Story

​Hi my name is Laura and I am the Executive Director/Founder at The Well! I love how God calls our name out on the water with Him; to join with him in the miracle of seeing the impossible become a reality! That's exactly where The Well was birthed out of. God had put a burden on my heart, a burden to see women living free and whole. Families set free from the generational cycles of poverty and abuse, and communities transformed by the power of Jesus.

When I started The Well in 2013 my family was going through it's own crisis, and it felt like the worst time to start a nonprofit. My husband had lost his job, we became homeless, I was pregnant with our third baby, and depression and anxiety took up residence in our family. 
This was the perfect recipe to step out and trust God as I was desperate to see Him move and bring wholeness to our family as well.

​God brought some other ladies with a shared passion and The Well started to take shape. We were given space to use for free so we could start mentoring women in Le Sueur MN, we knocked on doors, connected with churches, trained volunteers, and started loving on women and their kiddos. God was moving!! We have been able to help women move out of abusive situations, get to treatment, help with diapers and formula, offer support and friendship through pregnancy and birth, find jobs and housing, get clothes for interviews, and most importantly when their hope is lacking we have been able to show them love and introduce them to the one that brings a hope that the world will never give.

Services

​The heart of what we do is to walk with women in their circumstances and equip them in the journey toward freedom. While the curriculum we use for our mentorship program is consistent for all women who come in to The Well, we know every woman’s story is unique. So we offer one on one mentoring where we address her physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. You can learn more by clicking on the images below.

VIsion for 2021

WE ARE BUYING A HOUSE!!!!........We are taking big leap of faith and starting the process of raising money to purchase a home that we can operate The Well out of in the heart of North Minneapolis where we have been serving and mentoring women for the last 2 years. This is a vision that we have had since the beginning and now is the time to walk out on the water! We are looking to house The Well in a home atmosphere where it can be a place that women can drop by for a cup of coffee and some encouraging conversation, or to do laundry, apply for a job, meet with their mentor, and list goes on. If you are interested in learning more about our vision and want to help us accomplish this goal check out our VISION by clicking below. We are so excited to walk this out and see God do miracles!
