Remembering Connie Hultquist

Connie Hultquist (March 1947 - November 2021)

On November 18, 2021, Mrs. Connie Hultquist passed into Heaven.  She was an incredible blessing to all who knew her, both in person, and through her writings.  

I have written a short post, on her blog, called "Spiritual Rest" with more information about how her life has impacted so many.  I hope you will get a chance to read it.  There is also a page on her blog, with some pictures of her house.  You can see this on the "Home Tour" tab at her blog.  Many of us have read her books and writings over many years and would appreciate seeing her living room, dining room, and kitchen.  Her encouragement to just "get into your homemaking," taking care of the home, the family, and doing the baking and cooking, was excellent advice to help us forget about our troubles and just do the precious work before us.  Her writing, and her life, blessed hundreds of people all over the world.  

Her life of Faith in God will always be a blessed example to others.

I want to share, below, 3 reviews of her book, "Dear Kitchen Saints," which is a compilation of many years of her writing ministry. (She and I worked together to get this book in print.)  These readers shared the positive impact the book had on their lives:

"Dear Kitchen Saints" by Mrs. Connie Hultquist

 "An inspirational story of a wife who loved her husband and her family through years of suffering and praying for her husband's salvation. Very motivational for homemaking and making pennies stretch."

- Hope, from "Goodreads." 

 "I have read books that are theological heavyweights on religion, but this book is a heart heavyweight on a personal relationship with God. Connie is a rare gem, telling it from her heart. She shares how she got through all of the things in her life that would destroy most people. But she got through it because her faith and her relationship with God carried her through it. She worked hard and wasn't afraid to work hard to feed her family or make a Christmas for them, the whole time displaying a love for the Lord. If you want a feel good materialistic book on Christianity, this is not for you. It is also written the way she speaks, which for some people might be difficult to understand. But to me, there is a beauty in being true to who you are and just telling your story without trying to look good or impress people. She is a sweet Christian lady, and after reading this book, I am blessed."

 "Put away all the Self Help "How to Be a Good Christian Wife Books." This is all you will ever need. I have known Connie for a decade. She is the real deal. She walked the walk and believed and God blessed her for her faithfulness. She is a salt of the earth - what you see is who she is kinda gal. She is a good friend in the best of times. In the darkest hour of my marriage she was a rock and always -always points you to Jesus. I have my own marriage miracle now and I thank God every day. I am also thankful to Connie for her obedience to the Lord. She is such a phenomenal mentor to so many young and not so young Christian wives with less than perfect marriages."

- J. Johnson from "Amazon."

Connie has a wonderful, loving family who will greatly miss her. She was truly a virtuous woman, strong in the faith, and an example of following God, reaping the wonderful rewards He bestows on His beloved children.  

She has earned her rest and is now forever with the Lord.

 

Blessings

Mrs. White
