 Help Us Now & Build the Genesis 360 Vision   URGENT: Days From Losing Our Home

✨Before you read our story, I want to share where we are right now. Within days we could lose our home. We’ve fought to rebuild safety and stability after abuse and loss, and the clock is down to the final hours.

 The greater miracle we’re believing for is not only to remain sheltered, but to return to the neighborhood where my children once felt safe—where we lost everything and where we pray to plant roots deep.

 What was meant to be another ending, we’re asking God to turn into a beginning. Your help can make that attainable today.

  From Ashes to Architecture — Help Build the Genesis 360 Vision I’m writing this in a moment of urgency.

In just days, I may lose my home, but still building one for others. From ashes to architecture, I believe in the blueprint of becoming.

 I’ve been holding on with faith and perseverance, pouring everything I retain into this vision — and now I’m asking for help to stay housed, or provide a new house, long enough to bring it fully to life.

 This GoFundMe is not only about survival — it’s about finishing the foundation of a dream meant to help others heal, too.

 ⸻
To Those Who Are Called

This isn’t written from sorrow—it’s written from fire.

It’s an awakening, an invitation to help design what God is raising from the ruins—architecture from ashes, for the future, for wholeness.

A cry for justice and aid, yes, but also a rally for restoration—A call for reformers, restorers, and builders of faith to take their place. The hour is urgent, the vision divine, and the foundation watchful for those who choose to answer the call. It is not a plea from the broken, but a summons for those who recognize when Heaven is moving in hidden places.

 Rise.
 The hour has come for intercessors to rise, for the hidden ones to stand. The foundations have shaken, the fires have tested, and yet—here we are.

 From ashes, architecture.
 From silence, sound.  
 From breaking, blueprints. —This moment is urgent.

 I am facing homelessness in just a day. This letter is not a plea born of despair—it is a summons born of divine timing. What was meant to destroy is being rewritten into design. God is shifting, and I’m asking for help to move with Him. To stand with me as I rise likewise and help others do the same.

 ⸻
 ✨ From Breaking to Building

 My name is Elizabeth, and with my children, Kay and Lily—cofounders and co-dreamers—we are building something far remarkable than a gym. It’s a Genesis 360 Ecosystem: a place of soul, mind, heart, and body wholeness symbolized in tangible techniques and strategies written into the heartbeat of training youth gymnasts and someday other athletes.

This is the place where the spiritual and the physical meet; where breath becomes vision, movement becomes worship, and design mirrors divine order. It is a space where excellence becomes an offering, and healing becomes motion.

 This vision came not from ease or luxury, but from the depths of loss, isolation, and relentless persecution. We have walked through what most could not imagine and survived what others did not. What the enemy meant for evil, God is turning into a generational design for redemption.

 Through every test, betrayal, and shattered wall of safety, the voice of God whispered in my spirit:
 “Build it anyway.”
 So I am.

 He turned persecution into purpose, pain into pattern, and ashes into architecture. From everything meant to silence us, a vision was born: Genesis 360—a rebirth of what the enemy tried to steal.

 This is more than recovery; it’s reformation. It’s a living ecosystem where the four elements—Mind, Body, Heart, and Soul—flow together in wholeness, mirroring God’s design in creation.


Genesis 360 — Who We Are

 Genesis 360 is not just a brand or business—it’s a divine design. It was birthed through breaking, through what was meant to end me, and became the blueprint for restoration, healing, and faith in motion.

 Every piece of it carries the story of survival, but also of structure, of vision, of what God is rebuilding in and through us. The vision of Genesis 360 is to create a circle of restoration—faith, family, mind, body, and community—360 degrees of wholeness.

 It’s not just about business; it’s about rebuilding lives from the inside out, empowering others to rise again through design, creation, and connection.  


 ⛰The Battle We Survived After a little under two decades enduring every form of abuse—emotional, psychological, physical, sexual, and financial—Last year was the tornado. I did what I had to do to save my children and myself. I chose to protect my children and myself, trusting God to lead us into the unknown. What followed was a storm I could never have imagined.

 He abandoned us, manipulated, threatened, emptied the accounts, and used financial control as his last weapon of dominance. When he realized he could no longer control me, he weaponized technology—attacking with cybersecurity abuse in all forms—breaking into my iClouds, phones, iPads, computers, and even business accounts. My children were afraid to sleep alone.

 Apple itself confirmed what was happening, but it was difficult to stop. He stalked us physically and through technology, recorded, put trackers, blocked me from my own accounts, took away my authentication app, hacked our WiFi, broke in to change codes, invaded privacy, and cut off my service mid-attempt to regain access, and was becoming successful at getting him out of my accounts.

 It wasn’t just cruelty; it was a calculated attempt to erase identity—to silence voice—to scare hearts—to destroy the creative seed of purpose God planted in me. But what he underestimated was that I was already rooted deeper than his reach.

 I filed for a protection order first, and weeks later, a divorce. It was granted—but it did not protect us. Without the protection order, I believe I would have died given my history and with new education about domestic violence and escalations. God protected us.

 He broke it repeatedly.
 Each time, I was told to “prove it.”
 He quit his job before the divorce to avoid paying child support. He wanted silence — no technology, no voice, no documentation, no lifeline. But what was meant for evil, God meant for good. What he tried to erase became the very evidence of purpose. When I reached out for help, the systems built to protect instead told me to document and wait. Waiting almost cost me my life.

 But waiting became worship.
 Documentation became testimony.
 What the system overlooked, Heaven recorded. God provided miracles—our protector and our personal I AM.

 Every need, He supplied.

 ⸻
The Turning Point

 The night we said goodbye to our echoing home — the place he took from us — we prayed and with God working on our hearts all year, led by the Holy Spirit, we forgave in the empty living room with tears and a light heart.

 We sang Amazing Grace on the porch through tears and trembling with the wind blowing peacefully reminding us of John 3. We sang with joy as Paul and Silas sang in the jail when their joy could not be taken because nothing can separate us from the love of Christ.

 My daughter gave her heart to Christ that night, holding a small piece of nature she found — a simple stick and “monkey ball,” but to her, it was God whispering:
 “You’re still rooted.”

 What once caused terror became testimony — and from that breaking came the blueprint for Genesis 360.

 It was in that moment that I realized: this story was never just about us.

 It was about rebuilding what the world tries to destroy — faith, safety, and the belief that beauty still rises from ashes.


 ️ ️ Where Help Met Heaven

 I have gone to law enforcement, legal aid, domestic-violence advocates, and the courts. I am also in counseling through Montgomery County Women’s Center, and my children receive therapy through Lone-Star Family Health. Some turned us away; others stood by us in small but mighty ways.

 I am deeply grateful for those individuals, especially Lakeside Bible Church, who provided prayer, counseling, and even rent support when things collapsed. Those who stepped in to be the hands and feet of Jesus where they could—our counselors, the kind faces who believed us, and ACBC Biblical Counseling, who became a light in one of our darkest chapters. I am grateful to those who did help.

 When our car was being tracked, they helped me secure a new one, along with help for rent at times, and reminded me that God still provides. Their prayers and faith carried us when fear tried to silence us.

 Those who stood beside us deserve honor. They were God’s hands and feet when doors closed. They were proof that goodness still walks the earth. They reminded me that God still provides. And even when the world feels silent, Heaven is not.

 And through them, I learned: God does not always remove the storm—sometimes He sends a lighthouse to guide you through it. Some seasons He waters the seed; others, He buries it deep to grow roots of faith that will one day hold up a mountain.

 Jesus was the fourth man in the fire (Daniel 3) with us as we were being ‘refined, not ruined.’


 ⚡ The Danger Continued

 Even after he disappeared, the danger did not. Vehicles followed, cameras tracked, AirPods were hidden in our car, settings shifted without reason, Apple Watches linked to unknown devices, and a pattern of stalking and psychological warfare left my children afraid to sleep alone.

 Even at a court-ordered dinner, he looked my kids in the eye and said, “Are you sure it was me?”—gaslighting them (having proof in camera and in their own mind resolve) with cruelty only a conscience long abandoned could wield.  

When he never came back again, relief was an understatement. But when we prayed and said goodbye to our home (he took it from us too), we forgave. That night became redemption. God used it to save my daughter’s soul. As we held hands praying in an echoing home and sang Amazing Grace on the back porch, forgiveness fell like rain. My daughter repented and gave her heart to Christ that night—just as God had whispered in my spirit a confirmation that one of my children would be saved from this season of terrible suffering.

 What once caused terror now fuels testimony. What once felt like surveillance now feels like evidence of calling—because light exposes darkness, and truth speaks louder than manipulation or abuse.

 ⸻
  The Vision Birthed from Breaking

 Even in darkness, the vision came alive. The storm birthed a structure. From the breaking, the blueprint. When all walls fell, I saw the foundation that could not be shaken: purpose.  

It’s where form meets faith, mechanics meet meaning, and young athletes discover not only their physical strength but their God-given identity and purpose. The ecosystem is not just a structure; it’s a sacred circulation. Every layer—soul, mind, heart, and body—feeds the next, forming a flywheel into a living compass that always points back to wholeness rooted in God.

This is divine symmetry: Nothing wasted, nothing missing.

 ⸻
The Vision That Survived

 Genesis 360 was born from ashes — a rebirth of everything the enemy tried to steal.

 It’s not just a gymnasium— it’s an ecosystem of soul, mind, heart, and body wholeness, where movement becomes worship and healing becomes motion.

 It’s a wholeness model that mirrors divine order—Soul, Mind, Heart, and Body—woven like the four elements, fire, air, water, and earth balanced and alive. It’s where brokenness meets design, and where survivors find strength again.

 As a gymnastics coach, action photographer, and mother of two young gymnasts, I’ve seen how discipline and beauty intertwine — how correct form becomes foundation, and foundation becomes freedom.

 That’s what Genesis 360 represents — movement as worship, strength as praise, and excellence rooted in divine order.

 It’s faith expressed through form, and grace revealed through discipline.

 This is where young athletes and families discover who they are — not just how strong they can be.

It’s a vision that turns pain into pattern and suffering into strength. It’s a full-circle restoration — the kind that starts inside one heart and expands into a community.

 Genesis 360 isn’t just a dream. It’s a design. A Kingdom blueprint written in fire, faith, and fluid motion. But before we can build for others, we must first secure a safe place to live.


The Builders Rising

 I am a builder, visionary, strategist, and leader forged in fire, shaped for reform. I don’t want a handout—I want hands joined together to lift what Heaven designed.

 I see not just a gym, but an inheritance of healing and excellence—a 360 training ground where children learn to soar on the flywheel of faith and form, with the foundation built on the Rock.

 Every motion, every balance beam, every creation, every breath will testify:
 We are still here.
 We are still moving.
 We are still becoming.  

 My children are the first torchbearers of this mission—ignited from the embers no child should ever touch. Both have trained in gymnastics all of their lives, with discipline in mind & body, beauty, heart, and strength.

 They are not victims—they are visionaries. They’ve trained through loss, through trauma, through nights when we slept outside police stations for safety, and still they shine.

 Their story is not of fear, but of faith. They are cofounders not because of birthright, but because of endurance. They are living parables—proof that even the smallest hands can carry the heaviest mantles.

The heartbeat strums with conviction that God will finish the work He started in us.

  Phase 1 — Immediate Help and Stability  

Every dollar in this first phase goes directly toward housing, food, and immediate stability while rebuilding our foundation. Once we’re safe and stable, the next phases activate the community, outreach, and design work already in motion through Genesis 360.

 This first miracle is to keep our home or secure a new one so that Genesis 360 can continue to grow—helping others facing similar battles to find faith, safety, and purpose again.

 We urgently need $25,000 to stabilize our housing situation, prevent eviction, and secure a safe home — a gated environment for peace and healing. It is the first wall of safety around the next generation’s hope. Every brick we lay now becomes a future child’s shelter in a gymnasium with an ecosystem of wholeness training— Soul • Mind • Heart • Body •

 This is also aimed at re-establishing security in technology and business sabotage addressed and resolved. In this phase ensuring cybersecurity threats are taken seriously with precautions implemented is the next priority. We will open LLCs and provide the website and fundamental business setup to open our services in even the smallest format to start providing financial stability.

 This need is no longer distant or theoretical — it is urgent, immediate, and very real. We are only days away from losing our home, and with that, the fragile sense of safety we’ve fought so hard to rebuild. Without a place to stay, everything we’ve been working toward — stability, therapy, the children’s schooling, and the healing rhythms of daily life — would unravel overnight.

I’ve reached out everywhere possible: local aid, churches, rental assistance, and community networks. But many of those systems are overloaded or delayed, and the gap between help offered and help received grows wider each day.

 I am not sitting idle; I am moving, writing, calling, applying, writing grants, and believing. Yet even with all I can do, the clock is ticking — and this is the moment I must reach to those who are called, to those who understand that compassion is not a theory but an action. I’m asking for help that meets the moment — a chance to stay in our home, to give my children rest and peace while we continue to rebuild the foundation for what’s next.

This is the moment where; faith meets action.
It’s not about money; it’s about mercy.
It’s not about survival; it’s about the start of restoration.


 Phase 2 — Equipment, Coaches, and Renewal

 With $80,000–$250,000, we can fully equip the gym, hire coaches, and restore the photography business that tells stories of identity, faith, and movement. These images will not just serve the gym, but the message—portraits of redemption in motion. The camera, once a witness to pain, will become an altar of praise.

 Once stability is secured, this next phase focuses on sustainable restoration—strengthening the four elements that have guided both Genesis 360 and our healing journey: • Soul• Mind• Heart• Body

 Phase 2 is not about charity — it’s about continuity. About ensuring that what begins in crisis can grow into stability, and what begins in survival can evolve into purpose.

 ⸻
  Phase 3 — Expansion and Infrastructure  

With $500,000, we will expand operations, train coaches, and host workshops with high-profile Christian athletes who model integrity, faith, and fortitude. Every stream—movement, photography, storytelling, discipleship—will flow together, forming a living flywheel of faith and excellence.

 This is the season of return—when what was broken begins to build again, not just for one, but for many. Every act of mercy, every open door, every seed sown in faith becomes part of a chain reaction of restoration.

 “And I will restore to you the years that the locust has eaten…” — Joel 2:25 (KJV)

 The Promise of Restoration This is not just about crops or material things — it’s about time. God doesn’t only restore things; He restores years — the seasons of your life that you thought were wasted or gone forever.

 What the enemy meant for destruction, God will use as the soil for your harvest. When God restores, He doesn’t just replace — He redeems. He multiplies. He brings it back with interest.


  Phase 4 — Land and Legacy —
The Establishment:
 Building the Home of Genesis 360

 With $1.5–2 million, we will purchase land to build a permanent facility—a haven of wholeness that births reform in youth sports and family culture. From this will rise a franchise model—not built on profit, but on purpose, people, and purity.

 This land will be holy ground for restoration—where worship, work, and wellness converge.  

Phase 4 is the vision made visible—the promise planted long ago now taking form in stone, soil, and spirit. It is where Genesis 360 finds its home.

 After the journey through hardship, wandering, and rebuilding, this is the phase where we put down roots—not as a monument to survival, but as a living sanctuary of purpose. The land and building will stand as a testimony: that what was meant for destruction has been transformed into a house of restoration.

 This phase represents the embodied fullness of the four elements united—Mind, Body, Heart, and Spirit—each expressed in space and structure. Around and between them will flow the Ecosystem—This will be the soul of Genesis 360.

 Every inch will carry meaning. Every wall will tell the story of redemption. The architecture itself will mirror the divine design—circular, balanced, whole. There will be no corners where light cannot reach.

 Phase 4 is not about ownership; it is about occupation of purpose. It’s a declaration that the underdog has risen, that faith has substance, that the called have answered. : The vision is not simply to construct a facility but to consecrate a movement—a base for outreach, education, wellness, and innovation, all rooted in compassion and truth. It will employ, empower, and equip. It will house dreams and launch missions.

 When the land is secured, when the walls rise, it will not be called a campus—it will be called home.

 ⸻
  A Legacy, Not a Charity

 This is not charity—it’s legacy. A covenant of faith and restoration. We are not asking for a handout, but for hands joined together, we are offering partnership, in a divine blueprint that will echo long after our lifetimes.

It’s a home being rebuilt not just for us, but for others who’ve lost theirs. It’s proof that restoration is real, and that one act of help can build something eternal.

 A movement that restores the heart of youth development. A place where body and soul meet, where excellence is holy, and where faith becomes form.

 When you stand with us, you stand for reform, for faith, for the future, for freedom. You don’t just fund a gym—you fuel a generation’s healing. You don’t just build walls—you lift wings. The flywheel spins faster and momentum will rise swinging around 360 degrees looking to Christ in alignment in the circle of Genesis 360. I have been turned away, silenced, told to wait, told to prove. But I’m done waiting. I’m done hiding. Now, I’m building—and inviting you to build with me. Not just for me and my children, but for many other families and children who will reap the fruits of our labor and you are a part of that story God is writing.

 What we build here will outlive us—it will become a living example of what God can do with ashes when hearts unite to help someone rise again. Help us restore what was stolen. Help us plant what will outlast us all. Help us make Genesis 360 not just a business—but a living testimony.


 A Call to the Called

 You’re not just helping a family in crisis—you’re helping build a foundation that will help many more.

 The vision is not mine alone. It belongs to all who see themselves in this story. Those who’ve been through breaking but still believe in beauty. For this is the hour where hidden builders rise, where women once silenced now speak with blueprints in their hands.

 It is a trumpet call to those who have been prepared in the shadows, refined by storms, and now feel the quickening of destiny to respond. Light refracted through the rain can create beauty and radiant colors if God clears the sky.

When you stand with us, you stand for reform, for faith, for the future, for freedom. You don’t just fund a gym—you fuel a generation’s healing. You don’t just build walls—you lift wings.

 This is not just a project; it’s a movement. It’s the merging of faith, purpose, and innovation—where healing meets building, and the spiritual meets the practical. It’s for those who see beyond systems and into souls; those who know we can rebuild what’s been broken and reimagine what’s been lost.

 If you’ve ever felt the pull of purpose in someone else’s pain—this is your moment. If you’ve ever known what it means to stand for someone else’s miracle—this is your call. Join Me in the Becoming.

If my story resonates with you — if you’ve ever rebuilt yourself from the ground up — I invite you to stand with me now.

 Share, give, pray, connect. Help me hold this space so that Genesis 360 can hold others one day. Thank you for seeing me, believing with me, and helping me rise.

 Because from ashes, comes architecture. From breaking, comes blueprints. And from faith — comes the foundation for a new beginning.

The Crossroads I’m In Now

 Right now, I’m facing one of the hardest challenges yet. I’ve poured everything I have into building this vision — time, heart, faith, and every last resource — and now I’m standing at the edge of homelessness in just a matter of days.

 But I still believe this breaking point is also a birthing point. I’m asking for help — not from a place of weakness, but from a place of trust that those who are meant to help build this next phase will feel called to it.

 Your support doesn’t just keep a roof over my head — it helps lay the first real foundation for Genesis 360 to become what it’s meant to be: a place that helps others rebuild, too.  

 If your spirit stirs as you read this, it may be because you are one of the called—one who builds when others walk away.

 I’m asking you to stand with us now—not from pity, but from purpose. To give, to pray, to share, and to help us stay housed in these next few days while we continue building what Heaven has begun.

 This is the moment to move—from awareness to action, from empathy to architecture. Every act of faith becomes part of the blueprint. Every seed becomes shelter. ️

Urgent reminder: I am facing homelessness in just a few days. Immediate support will keep my children and me safe and allow Genesis 360 to continue moving forward. Your timely help matters now.

 Help us turn ashes into architecture.

 I promise transparency, gratitude, and visible growth. You’ll see the work unfold — from letters and creative projects to community outreach, education, and healing spaces that reflect the four elements of wholeness.
