Cathy Reeder Story By: Cathy Reeder Cathy Reeder’s Story is all about overcoming adversity, never giving up on your dreams no matter who or what comes against you and to keep putting your faith in Jesus, who never fails and who never lies.

Reeder’s profound story is for all those who have given up on their dreams because someone told them no. For all those who have been rejected and didn’t get what you worked hard for and then gave up. And for all those women who get pregnant at a young age, don’t give up on your dreams.
