Ashleigh
Fenzel
Breakout
When the Lord began to speak to Ashleigh and her husband, Lee, about the Father's heart to teach others to hear His voice, walk in healing and freedom, and understand their identity in the Kingdom, they had no idea all the places and incredible people they would meet along the way. Most of Ashleigh’s time is spent homeschooling their 5 young daughters along with all the "bonus" kids they host in their home through a local ministry. However, her heart has also been broken to see human trafficking ended, leaders healed and set free, the lonely placed in families and the Church united under the movement of the Holy Spirit. When she isn't hosting gatherings at their home in Denver, her favorite place to be is at their family cabin in Colorado's mountains.
