Dear Atarah,
As we discussed and agreed, it's time to retire as our Marriage Minister and focus on your family. We hope and trust you will continue to encourage all of us with posted praise, and you will also finish your RJN so we can read your epilogue.
There's no way for us to imagine how HopeAtLast will continue without you, but my Husband has assured me that just as we couldn't fathom not having a Translation Director, with Him taking over, so too will He amaze us during this transition.
What He also used to give me comfort was HLM to read in your recent posts https://encouragingwomen.org/what-are-you-grateful-for/
"One of the bigger things that I am so grateful for is that I learned the blessing of tithing and being a giver, that I no longer have a poverty mentality, that I am protected from the devourer. That I don’t stress and worry so much when I need to go to the shops to buy what I need and my family needs. That I am able to pay my bills and not stress about it like I used to."
We are confident that many testimonies will come from your trust in your Provider and also with your EH becoming your Spiritual Leader like never before.
There's no doubt there will be many more well-wishers who will want to bless you, so I'll let the many Encouraging Women and your dearest friends share their fondest memories of your time with them and RMI.
PLEASE promise you'll stay in touch.
Much Love,
Erin 💗

My heart is filled with so much emotions right now, and I know we are here just for an appointed time and He knows whats best for us. As you write with tears I read with tears also, you will be missed, and always in our hearts. Enjoy your time with your family and HH and continue to Bless us with your journey praises and testimonies. Thanks for all the support through all the possibly ways.
Dear Atarah,
You’re going to leave us 🌹 . This is the second time. After the first time I read the message of saying goodbye to you for leaving I was in disbelief, for several days I cried. I fell into uncertainty and didn’t know how to go on without you as an encouraging woman who encouraged, supported and taught me so much in the first years of my Recovery Journey how I could help other women as an encouraging woman. It has done me very well the many conversations via zoom with you. You brought hope into my life. I will never forget your patience, kindness and gentleness. You as one of my examples have led me to dare to take the hand of My Heavenly Beloved and to trust Him completely. Even if my eartly marriage is not restored, you let me see the way so that i could restore my relationship with my Heavenly Love 💞.
And just now while after reading Erin’s post about us saying goodbye to you, there were no tears in my eyes, they have come while I’m writing this comment 🥲. But this time it’s tears of joy. I know I’ll see you someday, either at one of our gatherings or in live. Besides Erin, Sara, Poppy, Yvonne and Adina, you are for me the encouraging woman my Heavenly Beloved has set as an example. Purely to stick to the truth of the principles we have learned here at RMI. And that He is all I need for an Abundant Life of blessings.
Dear Atarah, I wish you a very blessed, happy and abundant of all good to you and your family 🙏🏾. Actually an unnecessary wish because you will always remain a bride of our Heavenly Beloved. That is in your heart, that has become your nature.
So in the end I don’t say goodbye but SEE YOU 😍 😍 😍.
Aaahhh dear beautiful Atarah, I cannot believe what I am reading, but I know that the Lord’s plans are far much beter than our plans and I believe and know you will come back to write many testimonies.
The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace. N6:2426
My sweet Atarah, the Lord will bless you even more. You have such a heart of gold and you have been annointed to minister. Each Podcast and each of your testimonies have encouraged me so much. I love you tons. And I know that our Beloved is with you always!!
Dear Atarah, your testimony has always brought encouragement and strength to all Brazilian women, and I look forward to continuing to read about your journey.
Much love to you and may our Beloved continue to guide you.
“And the God of peace be with you all.”
Atarah, I do not have words, but:
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” (Jeremiah 29:11)
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding” (Proverbs 3:50)
“Be strong and take heart, all you who hope in the Lord.” (Psalm 31:24)
Thank you for everything you taught me and all the talks, always leaving me so encouraged!
Love you and gonna miss you!

Atarah
I can’t help surprising myself and even I trust Him for His plan on your life, I share the same feelings the other ladies shared here about this post because your testimony have an impact on me.
I really keep in my heart, your sweetness, amazing energy and your amazing laugher. I won’t forget the way you encourage me while sharing, and walking to the house of God in company in sweet fellowship together.
My dear blessings from Heaven for you today and ever after.
Atarah, Thank you for everything. You always responded with encouragement to all my post and praises on h@l and all the others. Even though I’m a little sad, if it’s what He is leading you to do then I will be happy and rejoice with you. I hope you will continue to post praise and keep us updated on all He is doing in your life with you EH, children, and mother coming to stay.

Dear Atarah, thank you so much for all you have done here, it has been such a blessing having you here and seeing how you encourage the other women. There were times when I could not see what should be said to someone and then you would just come and say exactly the right thing. I am excited to see what He leads you to do and see the praises of everything He is doing for you. I enjoyed every moment we have spent together and I am hopeful and smiling at your future. May His light guide your every step and be a lamp unto your feet. “The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.”’
Oh my dear Atarah, I’m so shocked to read this. It came by surprise. I want to thank you with all my heart for everything you’ve done. You are the one who My Beloved used to lead me here. You found me in a sea of hurting “standers” and pointed me to this ministry when you messaged me with the link. You have been such an encouraging woman from the start. Reading your testimony about being a stander in the past has helped me break out of my standers addiction as well. Hearing about your divorce helped me not to fear mine. You have helped me in times of struggle and confusion and also when I needed to just needed a cord of 3. You grabbed someone else and jumped in to hold up my hands up when they were heavy.
“… But Moses’ hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun.”
I can only hope to be able to do for others what you have done for me. You’ve helped me to find my First and True Love.
Words cannot say all the thanks and love in my heart for you, Atarah. You’ve been such a blessing to me and this ministry. I know this is not good bye but just see you later.
“’For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future. ‘” — Jeremiah 29:11 💝😘
Dear Atarah, thank you very much for being the instrument of the Lord to encourage me during my restoration journey, You have a wonderful gift to minister, to encourage, you are so sweet and kind… Without a doubt, you are an excellent minister and I trust that your Husband is lifting you to new heights, By His hand you can cross any path and have victory, in fact, my Beloved led me to share Psalm 34 https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=salmo+34&version=MSG with you. Your brightness is increasing dear Atarah! Thank you for your multiple praises, and for sharing the goodness of the Lord with us, I will never forget from you that “it was better then than now” and the same feeling that with Him you have everything will continue to accompany you. Love you!
Hey Atarah so it’s not by chance that I decided to start reading the PR,s on RMI only to read that you are leaving. Wow I pray that the Lord will continue blessing you in your new venture and will always remember your patience and kindness during my stay in Richard’s Bay. Much love to you and your family.
