Ope There It Is

A couple of small town midwestern ladies finding the gems hidden away in the hearts of small town people. We tell the stories and even interview people from our small-town Iowa area and learn about the incredible things they've seen and done. We'll also talk about Jesus and cake and butter cows and whatever the heck else. We (Jennie & Emily) believe God creates each person with unique beauty and purpose, like a gem buried waiting to be discovered. This doesn't always look fancy, or create "success" or fame. Our goal is to discover the gems hiding inside average, ordinary, small-town people. All it takes is a little digging and then, OPE! There it is!
