Original founders: Alline Marshall and Bonnie J. Hanson
Two Weak Women And Amazing Grace!
Faith Venture Ministries is dedicated to the memory and legacy of two women, Bonnie J. Hanson and Alline B. Marshall, who weren’t afraid to get out of the boat and say, “Here I am, Lord. Send me.” Isaiah 6:8
Excerpt from “Two Weak Women and Amazing Grace”, pages 17-18:
“What could two women DO as a ministry? As we prayed and considered this, we came to the conclusion that God would have us teach the Word. We had both visited many kinds of churches over the years, and we knew that there were many people faithfully going to church each Sunday who were receiving little more than the basic message of John 3:3, ‘Ye must be born again.’ We also knew that Christians needed the ‘meat’ of the Word if they were to grow. They needed to hear about death to self and a new, victorious life in Christ. They should be thriving and growing in their understanding of union with Christ as described through the Vine and the branch relationship in John 15.”
In 1977, Bonnie Hanson and Alline Marshall began their own Faith Venture when God joined forces with these two weak but willing vessels.

These ladies stepped out on the waters of faith and became a Powerhouse Duo that God could use to impact thousands of lives for the next 32 years. The book, “Two Weak Women and Amazing Grace”, written by Bonnie J. Hanson, details much of the adventures God chose for their walk with Him.
