Rescue My Marriage

Rescue My Marriage is a program and subgroup of The Fire Wife Sisterhood. This is a Secret Group only open to those who are experiencing a tough season in marriage. This group is managed by "seasoned" fire wives who have been hand-selected as "Marriage Mentors". This is a more intimate group to share a little more freely about your marriage challenges in a group where it's safe, non-judgmental and very encouraging to help you through these tough times. Please realize we are not counselors and not providing one-on-one services and if we feel your marriage is in a place that requires significant professional help, we will refer you in that direction as well. We have watched relationships flourish and strengthen through the dedication and effort put forth by the wives willing to do anything to save their marriages. This group often participates in group studies such as The Love Dare with 24-7 Commitment. This group is available to all women registered for the Fire Wife Sisterhood![Note; We are currently hand-selecting male marriage mentors to open a group specifically for the men in the Honor Guard.]

Blended Families of 24-7 COMMITMENT

The Blended Families group is a subgroup of The Fire Wife Sisterhood and the Community Managers are Jessie Jackson and Shai Bearden. We know divorce rates are high in the fire service also because so many of us are making our 2nd or 3rd marriage the one that's going to be forever....and that means often learning to be a "blended" family.   We like to call them "bonus" moms and dads.  It's much kinder.  Yet blended family topics can be some of the most challenging your marriage will face.

Volunteer Fire Wives

The Volunteer Fire Wives group is a subgroup of The Fire Wife Sisterhood and the Community Managers are Jennifer Bostic, Peggy Trump, and Beckie Randel. When your life seems to revolve around a pager, how do you plan anything? Volunteer families get to be experts at flexibility in scheduling. When the middle-of-the-night tones go off and interrupt your sleep, when you feel frustrated about your firefighter ducking out of a family party to go and assist the community, when you feel like your time together is not all it should be, turn to a community of other wives who get it. This community of wives is there to listen, uplift, and encourage each other through the unpredictable life of a volunteer fire family.

Wildland Fire Wives

The Wildland Fire Wives group is a subgroup of The Fire Wife Sisterhood and the Community Managers are Dian Smith, Abi Chapman, and Beth McDowell. We know divorce rates are high in the fire service also because so many of us are making our 2nd or 3rd marriage the one that's going to be forever....and that means often learning to be how to go undetermined amounts of time together during wildfire season.  Big city, suburban, small town, and wildland firefighters all face different challenges because they all fight fires differently and are on different schedules.

24-7 COMMITMENT Business Owners

The 24-7 COMMITMENT Business Owners group is a subgroup of The Fire Wife Sisterhood and the Community Managers are Lori Mercer and Cori Fuller. Because we know just being in the fire life and juggling schedules isn't enough for us, we decide to become business owners. We take it all on. The responsibility. The commitment. The extra time needed. The stress. The schedules and late nights. But we also know the joy of having our own business, being our own boss, working for something that is our own. This group is a place to share triumphs, struggles, laughter, and tips with other business owners in the fire life.
