Hi All, Just wanted to say that I just found out about the magazine thru our homeschool group. I will be subscribing to the magazine. I was interested in knowing if there are any mother out there who would be interested in a pen-pal? I am a mother of two ages 9 girl and 13 boy. I am 41yrs old. mariarhoades1@yahoo.com (Cincinnati, Ohio)
Hello, I am an old subscriber and hopefully I will be resubscribing soon. Gotta talk my fiance into getting it for me. I thought it was really cool to see the baby section of the site. I am currently the mother of one 3 year old and another on the way. Both girls. And my fiance has a 18 year old daughter from a previous marriage. I have been a career woman... if you even call it that for the past 4 years. When my dad had a breakdown and kicked me out of the home. So, I have been struggling and it has been hard, but I have met a wonderful man that believes that a woman's place is in the home. So, I'm very very happy now. Oh, I saw on the baby page these couples whose last names were Snyder and Pierce. And they were from OH. I think this is quite coinsidental because my finace is related to people of both sirnames and my daughter actually is to. I won't be till I get married. But, it was rather interesting to see that!
I used to subcribe to HopeChest about 5 years ago when the Meyer girls were still editing it, and really enjoyed it then. I always wondered what would happen if they became too busy for it. It looks like you girls are doing a wonderful job! Blessings to you!
Hoping to order a subscription for my daughter soon. She is 15 and she like to read magazines, but we have been unable to find any "christian"based ones. Patty
REALLY cute site! I hope to subscribe soon... whenever I save up the money! :) Thanks for putting it out! :)

Thanks alot for the magazine. I´ve got the first one already. I love it and it has such good lessons in it that we need today! God bless you! The mexican, Linda Grace CommentsThank you girls for doing such a lovely job on the web-site and magazine. I've been a Hope Chest subscriber for several years, and look forward to each and every issue!! It has been such an encouragement to hear from other like-minded girls from around the world. Keep pressing on! ~Grace D.
CommentsI enjoyed browsing through your attractive website! What a blessing to have a magazine like this for young ladies! God bless your ministry!
CommentsThank you for your lovely site. Lord willing, I will be able to purchase your magazine for me and my three daughters. I am sure it will be a rich blessing
CommentsHI!!!!! I was so excited to find this website! I used to get HopeChest when I was a teen! I loved it then, but we stopped subscribing in '98! HOW COOL to see what's happened to some of the girls whose names were like familiar friends, even though I didn't know them personally! For instance, Syke Erickson is now married!!!!! :) (so am I!!!! a month after her!! congrats, Skye!!) I had so many penpals, and friends from HopeChest. I had spent this past week reading my old issues (from vol. 4 #2 all the way to vol. 6) and was wishing for a subscription. My husband said it seemed to uplift my spirits so much, that we'll be subscribing to it! Yay!!! I also want to thank you girls so much for striving to live a life with a higher standard. God's been convicting me though the Bible, and some of the old articles about music, and clothes have helped me and I am praying about major changes in my life! I feel like I'm in the midst of a "cleansing" process.. and hopefully being made a more beautiful woman of God. I would love to chat, so email me! I don't check email often, so I'll send my address... I'm praying the Lord will send me some good Christian young women my age and maybe newly married like me! to help encourage me... for I don't know anyone in my community like that!! God Bless! Jessyca

CommentsThanks Laura and Anne for editing such a beautiful magazine! I had such fun doing the interview for it! If anyone would like to write me feel free to! l.m.davidson@att.net ~*LauraMay*~
CommentsI love your magazine...you are doing a wonderful job at this!!! God Bless!!!
CommentsLovely website! Nice job!
CommentsI have so much enjoyed my quarterly Hopechest magazine, Thank you for all your hard work! Your site is beautiful!
CommentsI think you have created the most beautiful website I've seen. Thanks for your work! Keep it up!
CommentsThis website is definitly a blessing to me. The graphics are so pretty and feminine. :-) I like girly things like that. I am a fellow sister in Christ coming to you from Lawton Oklahoma. I have been married for 3 years and have been a keeper at home for a year and a half. It's such a blessing! I will be subscribing to your magazine hopefully soon if finances permit. For some reason it is hard to live in Lawton. They are really money hungry and greedy. :-( But there is always hope in Jesus that things will change for the better. I do not get to check my e-mail often because we don't have a computer of our own, but I try to check it twice a week. I hope all of you have a blessed day for Jesus. Take care! Dawn Marie Villarreal
CommentsI came across your site today. I've booked it in my favorites for future reference. May God Bless!
CommentsI LOVE HopeChest magazine!! Thanks so much for taking the time to do it!!
CommentsCool site. Keep up the good work, gals! :-)
CommentsThis is a great site and wonderful magazine. My sisters and I were subscribed when I was younger and because of financial reasons, never were able to renew. I am older now and the encouragement from like-minded girls is more desired (there also are more finances available!) :) I hope to subscribe soon but until then, may God Bless all you who work so hard to accomplish this. Smiling for Jesus, Elizabeth Ulmer
CommentsYou girls are doing a spectacular job designing this website! It is absolutely beautiful! I've been enjoying the magazine so much as well. Thanks for all the time and effort you girls put into keeping this magazine going. I really appreciate it. Grace be with you all. Love in Jesus, your Sister~ Marissa
Commentsbeautiful!!!!!!!
CommentsGreetings! My sisters and I used to subscribe to your magazine -- what a delight it was to discover this website! We still enjoy pulling out all our back issues to pour over the pages. May the Lord bless you as you serve Him in this way!
CommentsDear Anne and Laura, I am 17 years old and just started receiving HopeChest a birthday present. I can't count the many times I have been encouraged, challenged and blessed by the kindred spirits in your magazine. Since God has given me a love for writing, I look forward to submitting some work and am very thankful for that oppurtunity. May our Lord bless you and your family in every way!
CommentsBeautiful website - especially loved seeing the color photos, and the bios of my favorite hopechest writers. thanks so much!
CommentsHi this is my first time on this website and I really enjoy it!!!Thanks for providing it!!! Love,Amber
CommentsInteresting site! Perhps I shall order a sample if funds allow.
CommentsHi! It's been fun reading your webpage! I just wonder where this was when I was a young girl growing up!? I am a happy homemaker, wife, and Mama of a very sweet 3month old. I have 2 sisters, one is still at home. Keep up the good work as you serve our Lord!
CommentsThere's an interesting story about how I came to this website... a friend recommended HopeChest magazine to me. Well, at this website: http://www.achristianhome.com/Just_For_Young_Ladies/justforyoungladies.htm I found an address for HopeChest. No telling the cost, or anything about it, only the address. Then at the Preparing Daughters website they recommended this magazine, and at least told how much it cost, etc. Still nothing about the magazine! At this point I'm beginning to wonder. Then at Hidden Wisdom Magazine's website I see a link to hopechestmagazine.com. I was so eager to see your site. As a matter of fact, While the page was still loading I had to get up to use the restroom. I was afraid someone would get on the computer. Sure enough Dad (who knew I'd been on the computer)calls "Hey Mary Beth!" I said "Don't get on the computer!! NO!!" he says "I'm not touching it. I just wondered where you went." I just thought you might get a kick out of my story. Sorry if I bored you. By the way, I think your website is just lovely, and I will probably be subscribing to your magazine soon. Right now I'm saving every spare dollar for BOOKS(I'm a bookworm and a half!) but once I have those books I'll probably be subscribing to several magazines, and HopeChest will be the first one!! Sorry for such a long note!!
CommentsI just found this website and really like it. I'm very interested in being in contact with other godly young ladies. I am twenty-seven, single and hoping to one day be a "keeper at home."
CommentsMy sister and I love the Hope Chest Website. There are all sorts of interesting things to look at, and we know we don't have to worry about running into bad sites/pages. We are really encouraged by a lot of the stuff we've read so far and are really excited about getting our first issue! Thanks a million for such a great website!! Caitlin and Laura
CommentsYeah, this site is a little ol' fashioned....but that is exactly what makes it WONDERFUL just like it is. Thanks for being a blessing to those wanting more than just a little "feel good gospel".
CommentsThe first issue of HC I received was after I had been hospitalized. I was touched that other girls are out there who love the Lord and have similar value systems and beliefs as I hold. I consent that the girls' tender speach and practical, tangible wisdom made me cry my heart out. Thank you so much for all your stories! - Andrea
CommentsThis is a very beautiful site. MaY God Bless your work. Smiling for Jesus Elizabeth
CommentsIt is a very sweet thing for me to see that there are other girls out there, trying to please the Lord with all their hearts. In such a world as we live in today you girls are needful, your sweet flow of water falls upon a dry and thirsty land. I encourge all who read this to let your light shine. Brighten the Corner were God has placed you, and always be about the things that binds your heart to Jesus our dear Savior.
CommentsThis is a wonderful site! Hopefully I will be subscribing soon! I've already got a sample issue and loved it! It's good to see that there are other girls who REALLY want to live for God. When I looked in your magazine and when I came to the site, you can tell a differance! You can just see the pure look in ya'lls faces. Keep serving God and stay pure! Your sister in Christ, Jennifer
