When 17-year-old Joni was injured in a diving accident more than 58 years ago, no one could have imagined how God would use that story to shape the best part of His plan — for her life and for the lives of thousands of others.
Today, as we celebrate her 76th birthday, we witness a true miracle of God’s faithfulness. Joni herself has said that she never expected to live this long — but the Lord had other plans.
We thank Joni for her tremendous involvement in serving Ukraine:
🇺🇦 for her prayer support during the time of war
🙏 for her help in organizing Family Retreats
🚗 for the Wheels for the World program
🚨 for her participation in the evacuation of people with disabilities to Europe
🎤 for the conference “Beyond Suffering,” which will take place on October 31, 2025
Glory to God for Joni’s life, ministry, and heart! 💫
Happy Birthday to you 🎉🎈🎁
Happy Birthday! 🥳🎁
