About Wendy Fitzgerald and Rebecca Leeman

Wendy and Rebee are no strangers to Lake Aurora and have been impactful to our Women's Retreats for years. They are the team from the "If Then Move" ministry that weaves together solid Bibilical teaching with creative story and product. The Purpose to encourage the hearts of women to respond to what God wants to do in them and through them...'even if'.

Wendy shares powerful and compelling teaching through her writing and speaking. With almost two decades in full time ministry and a background in theater, Wendy naturally employs humor, drama and story-telling to communicate the deep truth of God's Word.

Rebee serves alongside Wendy and has a passion for missions.She sees needs that others do not see, and she does not hesitate to serve others in the place of those needs. Co-leading with Wendy, Rebee thinks about every issue from multiple perspectives and pushes one to think past their own natural bend.

Their tag team approach will have you laughing, crying, thinking, and praying about how God can use you 'even if'.
