Welcome to Back To Life Ministries, With Cords of Love.
About Back To Life Ministries
Founded in 2024 by Ada, with Monica, Mara, and Jannette as co-founders. Together, we began with Bible studies to deepen our understanding of God's Word, equipping ourselves to fulfill His calling for our ministry. Our mission is to share the love of Christ and reach as many people as possible for the glory of God.
Meet Back To Life Ministries
Ada Edwards, Founder and Podcast Director
My heart is driven by an immense desire to reach as many people as possible with the gospel of Christ. This ministry was born out of a deep love for God and a calling to share His message of salvation, healing, and hope.
My journey with Christ has been one of transformation. I’ve experienced firsthand how amazing and beautiful He is, and I long for others to know Him in that way too. God has brought me back to life, and through this ministry, I want to share that same life-giving power with the world.
Alongside my incredible co-founders, Monica, Mara, and Jannette, I’ve spent time immersed in God’s Word, preparing and equipping ourselves to take this step of faith. It’s my testimony of God’s love, grace, and restoration that fuels my passion to serve, and I am excited to share this with all who will listen.

Jannette Valentin, Co-Founder - Engagement & Outreach Director
Jannette has always known about God's existence and has prayed throughout her life, but it wasn’t until recent years that she truly embraced a life of discipline and obedience to His Word. That pivotal decision to follow God’s teachings more closely transformed every aspect of her life. Through obedience, she began to understand the power and joy of living according to His will.
Since then, she has become more involved in her church and ministry, and has seen how God has worked in ways she never imagined. She is excited about what the future holds, both in her personal walk with God and in the work He is doing through Back to Life Ministries. She trusts that as she continues to walk in faith and obedience, God will continue to guide her, and she looks forward to seeing His plans unfold.
