Catherine's Story

"Ebenezer" — A Name That Means: Thus Far, God Has Helped

When Catherine joined WFA two years ago, she was a widow raising six children on her own. The road ahead looked steep and uncertain. But she came, she stayed, and she did the work.

Through WFA's business training and a small loan, Catherine opened a café — and she named it Ebenezer. It was not just a business name. It was a declaration of faith.

Today, Ebenezer Café is thriving. Catherine's kitchen is busy, her tables are full, and she now employs two women — including another WFA participant. What began as one woman's act of courage has quietly become a lifeline for others.

Catherine's story is the heartbeat of what WFA exists to do: equip women to build sustainable futures, and watch them turn around and lift others with them.
