Note:  I’m consolodating several blog posts into one here as I am transferring posts “by hand.”  Ugh. 

• Hi, all!  I’m enjoying promoting this book because I am so excited that there is FINALLY a resource for families about PPD from a Christian perspective.  Not that other secular sources aren’t excellent – they really are – but a Christian perspective was needed.  There is no need to be ashamed of this illness!  My ultimate prayer is for these women to know Christ and His healing love if they do not already.  There is always hope in Him.Sue’s book, The Lifter of My Head, was recently featured in the major newspaper in Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota.  You can read there article here.  Its a great article and I really enjoyed reading it.  The word is getting out! 

  In the same week, Sue was interviewed for a local radio station on a program called New Day with Pam Lundell.  You can find the link for that program here and I’ll update this post when I have a link for the actual podcast.  And even more exciting – Out of the Valley Ministries, Inc. was linked there!  Woohoo!!  Praise God!  Many thanks to Sue and the team at New Day for that wonderful surprise! 

• Out of the Valley referenced in……Postpartum Progress.  Katherine Stone of Postpartum Progress posted a brief post about Out of the Valley Ministries, Inc. back in May 2006.  Yes, I am a little slow in the updating the blog.  I was cleaning out old links and notes and noticed this one and that I may have forgotten to list it here.  I wanted to update again, just to be sure.  Many thanks to Katherine and her amazing work at her blog!!

• I’m so excited to be able to post this link to Sue’s interview on Pam Lundell’s program called New Day.  Just click on that link to find the podcast for the interview.  I just listened to the interview and it is wonderful!!  Sue did talk about Out of the Valley Ministries, but for time limitations that portion of the interview was edited in the this podcast but it was mentioned on air and at the very end of the podcast.  Thanks so much, Sue!!  I encourage everyone to listen to the interview!  I hope you will be as blessed as I was!
