A God-Dream Born from Personal Pain
Every butterfly emerges through transformation
Our Founder, Nicole Clark
In 2017, Nicole found herself in a season of deep grief. After the blessing of her miracle daughter Delanie, years of secondary infertility and an early pregnancy loss left her feeling isolated and questioning God's plan.
Our Genesis
Guided by Romans 12:12, "Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer" our ministry supports women through their hardest seasons. The butterfly in our logo symbolizes God's promise of restoration, which often unfolds differently than expected but always perfectly. What began as one woman's journey through infertility has grown into a nationwide ministry transforming pain into purpose.
Our Mission
Transforming pain into purpose for women impacted by infertility, pregnancy loss, miscarriage, and childlessness.
Our Vision
We aim to touch 1 million families with hope through our butterfly box ministry

The Nicene Creed
We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen. We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, of one Being with the Father. Through him all things were made. For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit he became incarnate from the Virgin Mary, and was made man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again in accordance with the Scriptures; he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son. With the Father and the Son he is worshiped and glorified. He has spoken through the Prophets. We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen
Just a note: When we say “catholic” in the Nicene Creed, we’re talking about the universal Church—the body of believers everywhere, not a specific denomination.
