Mary Frances Bowley is a pioneer in connecting passionate, Christian women with those who have been shunned by the church and the world. Her ten years as a women’s ministry director and her current calling as the executive director of Wellspring Living, a re-directional program for women, enables her to see both sides of the dilemma. This unique experience gives her the ability to create a bridge of hope and understanding between the two worlds. She has relentlessly petitioned Christians with resources to reach out to others, as well as compassionately dried the tears of the brokenhearted. She has personally walked side by side with countless women as they have made deep, Christ-centered friendships with women who seem to be completely different from themselves. Mary Frances Bowley has not only facilitated community connections with women in recovery, but she has taken them into her home and held them as they have cried through their pain.
