Testimonials
"I've worked with Marjory for over 20 years. She is an excellent childbirth educator and I would recommend all expectant parents to consider her classes. I have had the best feedback from couples who have taken her classes. Very nice person."
- Linda French, MSN, CNM (Midwife, Partners in Womens Health) "This class combined the information we needed for childbirth with the Christ-centered focus we desired. The Spirit of the Lord was present in each class, just as He was at the birth of our son." - Doug and Tammi Koning "In Wonderfully Made, we gained much knowledge about the natural birthing experience, but more than that, we gained Scriptural basis for childbirth—God created us to be fruitful and multiply, He created us to bring forth babies into this world. During labor and delivery, many of the things we had learned from class came back to us and we were able to apply them. Everything we learned about positioning during labor and delivery, working with our bodies (instead of against) during contractions to bring the baby out, relaxation, and visualizations were invaluable—we felt empowered with all the options we had. We had the most amazing delivery experience ever, and we give much attribute to what we learned in Wonderfully Made. We took this class before our 3rd child was born, and we wish we would’ve known about the class going into our 1st or even 2nd childbirth experiences. Thank God that it’s never too late to learn, which we believe led to our great delivery experience." - Andi and Connie Budiwarman "Both of our children were born after attending Wonderfully Made classes with Marj. We enjoyed the classes so much the first time around with Kayla that we decided to take the classes again with Drake. We felt the classes really brought us together as a couple and prepared us for a wonderful birth experience. We would highly recommend Wonderfully Made to all expectant couples. We found the classes very beneficial from both the medical side of what to expect during labor and delivery and the spiritual side of the birth experience and why it is such a miracle from God. We felt comfortable and prepared for the birth of our children. Between the Wonderfully Made classes and the involvement of an amazing midwife, the arrival of our two children into the world were miraculous experiences that we look back on with fond memories." - Lisa and Robin Bartell "My husband Chad and I took Wonderfully Made in January 2008. It was recommended by a friend of ours who took the class. This was the only "lamaze" class that we took and were very grateful we chose this one. Marj gave us a lot of biblical references to reflect on and use during my labor and birth. We decided that we wanted to have a water birth and this class helped to give me more inner strength relying on God's word that my body was designed to do this and everything would be fine. During my baby's birth I thought of many scriptures that were shared that helped me to put the process in the hands of God. We now have a beautiful 18 month old girl and thank God every day this gift. We are also now expecting another child in March and plan on taking the class again to remind us of all the wonderful things God intends for us. We recommend this class to anyone who wants a Christian based birthing class as it is well worth the awesome experience." - Chad & April Wilson "Anticipating the birth of our daughter was the most exciting time of our lives! It was also a time to anticipate the birthing process, how life would be with baby, and how we would fit into our new roles as parents. Taking the Wonderfully Made birthing class eased our fears and helped us to physically, emotionally, spiritually, and mentally prepare for God's miracle. During labor, I recognized how both my husband and I practiced skills and used the tools we learned about from our classes. I was mentally and physically focused on the task at hand...delivering our baby girl...knowing full well that God was there at all times, encouraging her and us! My husband was able to provide support and use the strategies he learned to help me manage the contractions. The class is practical and useful, and I feel blessed to have been a part of it!" - Amy and Mike Meyer "My husband and I took the wonderfully made class because we wanted something that was scripture based. We believe that God has his hand on us and our babies before they were even made. He is the creator of our lives and we wanted a class that reflected that. We were very please with the birthing class. When we took the class we were expecting twins and the class helped us answer questions about twins and birth. We were very blessed to have had the opportunity to take it and would highly recommend it to anyone." - Laura and Kevin Osborne "My husband and I really enjoyed this class. It help to quell our fears of birthing, gave us a realistic view of what to expect in the birthing room, and helped me to prepare for what was ahead. Now we have two beautifull boys that we are blessed with everyday. We are grateful for the realistic advice and help that wonderfully made gave us as we traveled unchartered waters." - Arlea and Adam Swager "Like many people with their first pregnancy, we were looking for a lamaze class to attend. We strolled across an ad for Wonderfully Made in the Borgess brochure. Let me just say, the description doesn't do it justice. We thoroughly enjoyed every moment of this class. It was more than just information about the "how to's" of birthing, but a bonding time for my husband and I. We connected with the class on a spiritual level, and took away values that we'll keep with us for the rest of our lives. We HIGHLY recommend this class to everyone we know that's having a baby. The name speaks for itself; it is wonderful!" - Ken and Tara Follett "Marjory is a great person to work with that has deep subject knowledge, but is able to make it palatable for the lay person to understand. She loves what she does and it is evident in her attitude and the approach with which she teaches the class. I appreciated her going into detail with all that is involved with a birth - especially for a first timer. During the delivery process, we were mentally prepared for everything that happened. Thanks Marjory!" - Jeremy Heavey "I recently attended the wonderfully made birthing class and really enjoyed all the knowledge and care the instructor gave us. She provided very helpful and useful information all the while keeping our Lord and Savior in the forefront. She helped us to prepare for many different types of birth, as well as had us practice various positions and breathing techniques for dealing with contractions. She helped ease the anxiety of my first delivery, and I understood what was happening to my body throughout my delivery. My husband and I now have a beautiful 12 week old baby girl. While my delivery was c-section, the class helped me understand both natural birth, as well as alternative births. This class I feel is different from a non-Christian based class because our faith is the most important part of our life. My husband and I appreciated the fact that the instructor kept Jesus in mind the whole time, and helped us to remember the reason for birth, as well as helping us to find supporting scriptures for labor, pain, and delivery in the Bible. She also provided us with scripture for love and raising our children once delivered." - Dave and Erin Thomas "Wonderfully Made came into my life before we were blessed enough to conceive. Leafing through the Borgess courses I longed for my husband and I to enter that experience. Joy at finally having a child in my womb was accompanied by the excitement that I would be taking this spiritual class! Wonderfully Made became our light in the dark, fearful anticipation of delivery. Just as God created the life of our child, we felt God inspired that class and revealed Himself to us in that class in amazing ways." - Colleen and Tony Roemer "Marjory and her Wonderfully Made Birthing classes were a Godsend to us! We thoroughly enjoyed the class. During those two weeks, we learned valuable techniques for coping with the pain and uncertainty of labor and for viewing the labor process as a holy and miraculous event. We're happy to report that the tools we learned in class helped us to deliver our son with the natural childbirth we hoped and planned for. Thanks!" - Amy and Andy Bethune |
