What is Cherish?
Cherish is a young women’s ministry, helping girls of all shapes, sizes, and backgrounds navigate the journey of becoming the woman that God has called her to be. The heartbeat of Cherish Ministry is to be a community that helps young women face their daily battles, approaching topics with transparency and vulnerability while pointing them back to God’s Word; topics such as body image, self-esteem, relationships, boundaries and more.

ABOUT

We meet young women where they are at. With an emphasis on creating an online community as well as creating connections IRL, we are here to walk alongside our girls in their day to day.

It's about more than making genuine friends. Our mission is to give our community of young women education, tools, and resources rooted in The Word to carry them through every challenge or season they may be facing.
empower
With pop up events and annual conferences, plus so many additional things in store this coming year, we will give our community the resources they need to spread the message of truth, value and confidence to their own social circles.
Meet the Founder
April Biondolillo
For the majority of my life, I misplaced my worth in the size jeans I wore, friends I had, relationship status, career path, and so much more. This caused me to walk with my shoulders slumped, feeling insignificant, inadequate and insecure. Ultimately, I found myself compromising my values and settling for counterfeit versions of my worth.
AND as a chaplain for 3 years in college and a youth pastor for 5 years after, I found that this wasn’t just MY story. In fact, this was the narrative shared among many young women ranging from middle school all the way to college graduates.
While there was comfort in not being alone in my struggles, there was frustration knowing that so many women lacked to understand their true worth.
This is why I have launched CHERISH MINISTRY because this is not the LIFE God has called us to live!
I believe everything we need to walk confidently is within us! However, it’s not until we embrace and CHERISH the season we are in that we stop comparing, settling, and compromising.
If you’re a girl and you’ve ever questioned your worth, this ministry is for you and I invite you to follow along.🤍
