When One Heart Heals,

A Whole Family Is Restored.

We’re the Childs Family

Andrew, Shannon, Logan, Adelin, and Jax.

Our story is one of faith, redemption, and restoration. When our son Logan faced unexpected medical challenges, our family’s world shifted. We quickly learned that when one person is suffering, the impact ripples through the entire home ~ both seen and unseen ~ touching every heart, body, mind, and spirit.

In the midst of exhaustion and uncertainty, God called our family to the Well ~ the place where we found healing, peace, and purpose in Him.

From that journey, Living Water Family Wellness was born. What began as Shannon’s passion to help women heal has become a family ministry ~ partnering with families ready to rewrite their story ~ to heal the broken places, restore what’s been lost, and step into a new legacy of wellness, faith, and freedom in Him.

It’s our mission ~ and our testimony ~ to help families experience the same peace and freedom we found in Him.

We’ve been there ~ weary, waiting, and wondering where God was in the middle of it all.

But it was in that waiting that He met us, restored us, and showed us what true healing looks like

Healing Begins at Home

What began as our family’s journey toward peace has become a ministry to help others find it too.

At Living Water Family Wellness, we believe that healing flows through families ~ because when one heart is restored, the whole home is renewed.

What began as Shannon’s calling to help women heal has grown into a family-led ministry dedicated to helping others find restoration through faith, functional wellness, and nervous system renewal.

Our mission is to help families restore what matters most: their peace, purpose, and wholeness in Christ. Through compassionate care, community, and Christ-centered tools, we walk alongside families as they rebuild from the inside out.

Our family’s journey wasn’t one we expected.
When Shannon’s health challenges and our son Logan’s medical crisis collided, we found ourselves weary, waiting, and desperate for peace.

We saw firsthand how illness and trauma ripple through the entire home ~ physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Yet it was in those broken places that God met us, restored us, and gave us a new purpose.

What began as a personal search for healing became a calling to help others experience the same ~ wholeness in Him.

From Women’s Wellness to Family Restoration

Our Journey: From Breakdown to Breakthrough

We didn’t plan to start a wellness ministry ~ it began in the middle of our own storm. What should have been a season of celebration turned into one of heartbreak and surrender. When Shannon faced deep physical and emotional pain, it opened her eyes to the brokenness within the healthcare system ~ and the desperate need for whole-person, Christ-centered care.

Through years of medical challenges, trauma, and unanswered questions, God began a deeper healing work ~ one that started not in the body, but in the heart. It was in that season of waiting that He revealed a truth we now live by: healing isn’t about fixing what’s wrong ~ it’s about being restored to who God created you to be.

From that revelation, Living Water Family Wellness was born ~ a place where faith meets functional medicine, and families find restoration through nervous system renewal, trauma-informed care, and Christ’s redeeming love.

Where It Began
