Welcome

Do you feel that still small voice in your soul? Is it telling you that your desire to serve in your Holy Calling, using your gifts, is not only possible, but exactly why you’re here in the first place? Is your church a place for you to express these dreams? Do you feel seen, heard, loved, honored, for your wisdom and contribution to God’s greatest good?

Or do you somehow feel left out, invisible or even marginalized? Are you beginning to wonder if you are completely alone, that what you thought would last you a lifetime is already fading in the distance? Do you experience your faith growing beyond the boundaries of your church’s awareness of God? If any - or all - of this feels familiar, you are not alone.

Many voices over the centuries have called to us as women, to trust ourselves, to deepen and act on our faith in God. Your mentors, the women in your life that have encouraged, challenged and nurtured you, stand among this ancient women's choir. They taught you what it means to be visible, whole and powerful as a woman of faith.

As you are called, so your voice is included as leader, mentor, teacher. You believe that what you most desire to create with your life, God wants for you even more than you can imagine. When you pay attention, ask questions and listen for that next right step that is always God moving in you, you know what comes next, and you trust that knowing to move forward. No more settling. You take full responsibility for creating the life you want, in service with God as Generous Cooperation, there is no stopping you. Are you ready to step into the rest of your life?

Here's what women who have worked with Cory are saying:

"Although my work with Cory began as a quest to strengthen my professional life, her work has also enhanced my home life. My husband has observed my increasing calm amid many storms. As we looked into the financing of Handcrafted Faith, he told me that he would find a way for this to happen because he saw the tremendous support it has given me."

And . . . .

"Cory is deeply gifted at listening to the client’s heart—not only the words expressed, but also the yearnings, the unspoken pieces, and then reframing it in an “aha!” moment. Our monthly phone appointments included remarkable conversation, prayer, dream, and focus.

My prayer practices became more clearly defined and more regular in working through the weekly readings of Handcrafted Faith. There is not only the time I spent reflecting and journaling. There is also the renewal of my twenty minute contemplative prayer practice, from which I had drifted away. Together, the practices have deepened my sense of peace, reminded me of the significance of daily intention, and led me a deeper sense of the presence of God.

Testimonals

Dawn E. Volpe

"I have served as a pastor for 30 years. I’ve had informal mentoring from other clergy, especially in my younger years, but never had relationship with a coach. When Cory reached out to me to offer the Handcrafted Faith program, I signed up to try something new. My goals were to deepen my faith, hone my writing skills and develop the habit of daily reflection and writing. After completing the Handcrafted Faith program, I found my time with Cory so valuable, that we have continued our work together.

Each time I work with Cory, I gain new insight into my motivations; I have a clearer understanding of my gifts and abilities, and I am more efficient in my work. I have developed a new habit in daily journaling that I didn’t think was possible. My work with Cory has enabled me to ‘stand in my own power’.

Although my work with Cory began as a quest to strengthen my professional life, her work has also enhanced my home life. My husband has observed my increasing calm amid many storms. As we looked into the financing of Handcrafted Faith, he told me that he would find a way for this to happen because he saw the tremendous support it has given me.

Cory is a rare gift to women professionals. She is grounded, thoughtful and has a great sense of humor. She listens deeply, focusing on the important issues, sometimes hidden within layers of conversation. She challenges, gently prods, praises progress and helps me make delightful discoveries about myself.

Working with her has been my greatest gift to myself. I hope other women will give themselves the gift of Handcrafted Faith."

The Rev. Dawn E. Volpe serves as Pastor of the Ephraim Moravian Church, Ephraim, Wisconsin.

Maggie Wellert

"I began Handcrafted Faith as a discernment process. I had retired two years earlier and the plans I made for my retirement ministry didn’t seem to be coming to fruition! My hope at undertaking the work with Cory Kemp was to develop a ministry/business plan, and focus on how to put my retirement ministry into action. Was I ever surprised!

I learned that I no longer felt called to the “retirement plan!” This was pure gift. As I worked through successive lessons, journaling practices, and conversation with Cory, I realized that God was providing me with the steps to an unplanned retirement, utilizing gifts I had honed in parish ministry to reach a much more varied group of people hungry to learn, explore spirituality, and grow in faith.

Cory is deeply gifted at listening to the client’s heart—not only the words expressed, but also the yearnings, the unspoken pieces, and then reframing it in an “aha!” moment. Our monthly phone appointments included remarkable conversation, prayer, dream, and focus.

I'm so grateful that I now have a clear retirement ministry focus, that I am heeding God’s leading rather than my own, and that I developed the flexibility to turn away from a pre-conceived goal and hear a new one. I encourage you to say yes to the nudge in your heart, leading you toward Handcrafted Faith. I am grateful that I did!"

The Rev. Maggie Wellert is a retired pastor who continues to serve in teaching ministries in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

"I have worked with many coaches and Cory is by far one of the most effective in the industry! She creates an unwavering safe & non-judgmental space for me to delve deep into my limiting beliefs, creating the space for powerful shifts to occur. As a recovering people pleaser, I have a tendency to say and do what I think my Coach wants from me causing me to go in circles, preventing me from actually moving forward with my heart’s truest desires. With Cory, I am able to share what’s true for me without fear of being judged or shamed, allowing me to then get the proper support I need to move forward in an effective way. What was uncovered in just one session is far greater than one year with other coaches.

Cory listens deeply, asks powerful questions, is great at helping me strategize concrete action steps to move me forward, and is fantastic at reflecting things back to me in a distilled way such that I can understand my desires & intentions better. I truly feel like her only agenda is to help me attain what my soul desires versus other coaches who support me in attaining what they want for me.

If you’re feeling stuck and need support in moving forward with your goals, I highly recommend Cory Kemp!"
