WHAT DO WE DO AT
FINISH WELL?
At Finish Well, we exist to walk alongside women through life's challenges, offering strength and direction to navigate their journeys with resilience and purpose. We only have one shot at this life and we want to steward it well, no matter our circumstances. Our mission is to equip and empower women to live well, suffer well, and finish well by providing the support, guidance, and community they need.
We believe in the power of community and connection. Join us, and build lasting friendships and strength in shared experiences. We understand that life’s difficulties can be overwhelming, and we are dedicated to being a source of encouragement and practical help. ​
HOW WE GOT STARTED.
In 2017, at 38 years old, Jeff Homan was delivered the devastating news that he had a terminal disease with an average life span of 2-5 years. Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, or Lou Gehrig's disease, is a rapidly progressive disease that robs sufferers of the ability to walk, move, speak, swallow and eventually breathe. Imagine—trapped, inside your own body. It’s 100% fatal.
After diagnosis, the mentality of “Finish Well” was immediately implemented in all aspects of his life. He made a commitment with his wife, Tara, and their young boys to live well, suffer well, and finish well, despite their circumstances and to be faithful with the life they've been given.
Together, Jeff and Tara co-authored the book “Finish Well”, written to their two boys. Anyone can start well, it's the finish that matters most! While ALS was the hardship they were entrusted with navigating well, the purpose of the book is the pursuit of finishing well in the midst of adversity.
Jeff passed away in August, 2022 after living with ALS for six years. He certainly loved life and his dream was for Finish Well to live on and have an eternal impact. So new life was breathed into Finish Well and a ministry was born that honors his life and legacy. Join us, as we work towards healing and building a life with eternal significance!
