"During the weekend of July 9-10, 2016, I was traveling alone on I-70, heading to Hays, KS. Specific information started pouring in, including a particular location, day, time, and who to initially invite as I was being encouraged to start a non-denominational, inspirational women's group. I looked to my right, and I saw an actual billboard of Jesus that read, 'Jesus, I trust in you.' Two days later, I started following through with the specific information I was given. Things were quickly falling into place. I was pleasantly surprised by the positive feedback I was receiving, which aided me in the process of moving forward. I was definitely stepping out of my comfort zone, as I knew we would be talking more openly about God as well as our personal journeys. When we trust in God and follow His plan for us, it is amazing to witness the indescribable resulting outcome. "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the LORD" Isaiah 55:8. I wasn’t sure what all God had in store, but I knew I had to trust Him and take it one step at a time. From these beginnings, it has transformed into an outreach ministry beyond anything we could have ever imagined! It is now not only for women, but for ALL! We are all invited and welcomed to come and know God more!" -Kristi Arasmith, Founding Director of Boost Ministries®
Boost in the Beginning
The first Women’s Boost gathering came to fruition just five weeks later on the morning of August 17, 2016. It has continued every Wednesday morning since. The picture captures most of the group when we first started. Word started spreading about this group, and an evening option was requested. The first Evening Boost took place on January 11, 2017 and continues monthly. Expansions of this God-breathed group continues, including an annual Boost Your Journey Conference, speaking events, official title of Boost Ministries® Foundation that includes everyone of all ages, weekly small group Bible studies, one-on-one prayer partnering, non-denominational Praise and Worship, and mission outreaches.
All Glory to God
This group and experience has been indescribable. All Glory to God as He has led the way of Who, What, When, and Where. We prayerfully seek His will and do our best to listen and obey. The resulting outcome has been incredible! The Holy Spirit has been present throughout this journey, and we are well aware we couldn't do this without Him. Unity, connection, and growth...this is what this group represents. There is something truly unique and special happening within this ministry.
*Wherever you are right now in your life is the perfect place to start deepening your relationship with God. Just take hold of His offered hand, and let Him lead you one step at a time. Let’s experience this journey together! Much love and God bless!
