Advisory Board

Tim and Brenda Petru are parents of 8 great kids. When they got married, those children were ages 5-15, Tim and Brenda each bringing 4 children to the family. In year 3, they came up for air and looked at each other amid the chaos. "I think we can do this," they agreed and continued to press forward. With many challenges (and a lot of baggage) it was a very difficult journey. In year 7, Brenda met Becky Rogers and learned about LifeStory Transformation. Things began to change immediately as she applied the principles she learned to their life and their marriage. By year 10, things were really smoothing out and getting fun. Money was abundant, kids were happy and growing, they were thinking about moving to a bigger home, and they even won a fitness challenge. That was the year that Brenda's sister was in crisis, so they took her and her 4  young children into their home. For 4.5 years they helped her to raise her children in their home as well (Cheaper by the Dozen, Anyone?) Now that everyone has grown up and her sister and kiddos have moved out, the couple adopted a 3-day old kitten and bottle-fed him around the clock to save his tiny life. They have continued with the menagerie, adding another kitten, and now 10 chicks to keep them busy since the kids are gone. They are grandparents to one adorable granddaughter so far and have created a gathering place with their dream home where they invite families to come and share a meal and feel the love and peace in their home.

Brenda is a mom with a hustle. She has done many side gigs and jobs and teaches young people how to create businesses and become entrepreneurs. She has a very successful essential oil business where she leads a team of leaders, guiding them into business success as well. Brenda's passion is taking women who believe they might have what it takes and helping them to get on the path of LifeStory Transformation to change their lives by changing what they think.

Both Tim and Brenda are so excited to be invited to be a part of the Board for the Family Restoration Center, because of the many miracles that have occurred for it. "We want to add our faith to this project, and continue to strengthen and bless families and children on both sides of the globe."
