Hagar’s Heart: Providing Support and Self-Care for Domestic Violence Survivors in DFW

Fifteen years ago, Jennifer Jones’s world fell apart. She was married, teaching at St. Alban’s School in Fort Worth, a mom to her 2 ½ year old son, and had just moved into a new home. When Jennifer suddenly found herself alone after her husband abandoned her, she turned to her bible which opened in Genesis to the story of Hagar: “You are the God who sees me,” it read. (Gen 16:13) The same verse in Genesis kept appearing over the years as Jennifer realized she was a victim of domestic violence.
