Overcomers Daughters of the King of Kings

Overcomer’s is an amazing organization that provides resources and support needed not only for the one diagnosed but their entire family as well. The members of Overcomer’s are breast cancer survivors themselves who selflessly share their testimonies and meet you where you are so that you never feel alone. Overcomer’s is a Christian organization so you and your family are continually covered in prayer. It’s important to note that the Leadership takes no salaries. ALL monies received go back to bless those who attend workshops and retreats. Overcomer’s also has an outreach program called Pink Under the Tree that blesses several families with Christmas gifts every year. I could not be more proud to be involved with such a wonderful organization.

Overcomers is an amazing organization to be a part of because of what they stand for and the impact they have had on the people they have come in contact with. I’m a true testament to how Overcomers has blessed me abundantly and I see how anyone else who is involved with them benefits from how they meet their needs. I am so glad that Overcomers came into my life especially at the most crucial time that I didn’t even know I needed. Overcomers you Rock!

I absolutely love this group they have helped me and my family during Christmas and I attended meetings with them and I have felt so loved and included and inspired by these group of women

I found overcomers last summer when I was in thick of my breast cancer treatment. As a 31 year old newly diagnosed patient, I felt very lost and struggled to cope with the unpredictable reality of cancer. A family friend of mine told me about overcomers and encouraged me to join a workshop with her. So I decided to enroll in their 9 week workshop and so happy I did. The outpour of support I received from my leaders is exactly what I needed as I navigated though my journey. The topics addressed each week were so transformative for me as I no longer felt isolated or scared. The connections I made with fellow group members were so valuable to me. I've built amazing connections with wonderful ladies who have helped me tremendously not only in my breast cancer journey but in my walk with God. I loved my experience so much I decided to enroll again for the following spring workshop. I also attended their spring retreat in Tarpley, Tx which was another incredible experience. I will always be grateful to Overcomers and the impact it had on my life.

This organization is phenomenal with the services it provides for breast cancer survivors. I have gain useful tools to help in my journey. The outpouring of love is awesome. This group is not just a support group I consider them family. Grateful to be a part of this group.

I came to Overcomers at the suggestion of my infusion nurse at Texas Oncology. At the time I felt like I did not need "to share in my misery" with other people. How wrong I was... From the start as soon as I arrived, I was welcomed and was given space and time to feel like I could open up. I was so wrong, it wasn't sharing in misery, it was being among people/women who truly knew what I was feeling. It was the best decision ever to go and spend time with my beautiful Pink Sisters. If I could give them more stars I definitely would!!

Very lovely ladies and willing to hear help in any way.Have fun getaways and focused on God all the time.

I love Overcomers. They have been with my family and I during this cancer journey. Every time we had reached out to them they were willing to help us. We could always count on Overcomers.

This group of women helped me to own my feelings post treatment. It is wonderful having women that can truly empathize with you. I found so much help from friendships to recommendations that provided me much needed relief. Overcomers is a fantastic group of women providing support for one another.

I stumbled upon Overcomer’s Facebook page when I was first diagnosed with Breast Cancer March, of this year. I was looking for a support group, that I could attend locally. What I found was much, much more!! I found an amazing, encouraging group of Christian women. They offer so much more than just a support group would. They offer support through workshops, retreats, prayer and even financial help, if need be. I am so fortunate to have found this fantastic organization.

I am so grateful that I was able to experience this Overcomers workshop a few years ago. I learned so much and I will cherish everything Overcomers taught me after my Breast Cancer journey.

Breast Cancer Survivor

Overcomers is an all-volunteer non-profit where all donations go to supporting women experiencing or recovering from the impact of breast cancer. It has made a tremendous difference in my life to be a part of this fantastic non-profit first as a workshop participant and then as a board member.

When being diagnosed with Breast Cancer last year, you feel like your world is crumbling. Being a mother and wife doesn't stop due to your illness. Overcomers blessed my family and I tremendously when we needed it the most and I don't like to ever ask for help. When my family and I got nominated for a family to be blessed with Pink Under the Tree, I was speechless and felt all the gratitude of emotions it came with.
Overcomers has done more for me in the past few months that not even family has ever done for me. I will always be forever grateful and blessed for this amazing nonprofit. I can never thank Genny and Jess for having this amazing nonprofit for all of us pink sisters.

What a huge blessing to be able to assist our breast cancer community with emotional and physical aspects of what breast cancer has done to our lives. The impact that we are able to accomplish is such a need in our community!

I was so blessed to find overcomers as a breast cancer survivor right out of treatment. I was broken and tired and lost and attending the 9 week workshop as well as the Beauty in the Brokenness retreat was a God send. They helped me process all of the feelings and emotions a cancer diagnosis can cause. I had a safe space with beautiful women of Christ with whom I can share and laugh and cry. They loved me through some of the most difficult times in my life. Knowing that I had to be a part of this group and give back, I became a leader serving women through the 9 week workshop and then shortly after that I became a member of the board. I am so proud of the work that we do to serve women in our community and I 100% recommend this group to any woman affected by breast cancer who is seeking love and support.

Overcomers is making a difference in the lives of women affected by breast cancer! The leadership team is committee and strives to ensure the women feel supported and equipped to live beyond their diagnosis through survivorship! May the Lord continue to bless this organization as it grows!

Overcomers has helped me get through so many of the problems that arise from having breast cancer. The wonderful support from all the leaders and participants is phenomenal! Through the workshop, I dealt with the emotional, physical and health issues of going through chemo, surgeries and radiation.

I am so fortunate and blessed to be a member and I am very thankful to all the members who have helped me during my cancer journey. I cannot thank you enough for all you have done for me!!!

Unconditional love and support from women who truly understand what a diagnosis of breast cancer can do to someone. Fellowship and tools offered for walking the path of a survivor. Mind, body and spirit ...Overcomers has you covered. Faith based but in a very non pushy or judgemental way. Don't let the Faith aspect detur you at all. I promise...you will feel the love . Join with open mind, heart and ears.... you won't be disappointed. Overcomers are ready to "Love you through it".. newly diagnosed or a long time survivor. Let us help you with your journey along the way ! 9 years and going strong

My wife took this program in 2020 and it has changed our lives. I noticed she was stuck on a few things and I didn’t know how to help her. Finding the right group was what she needed. If you are a struggling husband like myself, I highly recommend this group.

Knowing that I’m not alone in this journey means the world to me. Meeting the ladies at Overcomers is so refreshing. They really do care about you. Genny and her team are such compassionate people. If you need help please reach out to them. If they can help, they will.

Being diagnosed with breast cancer and undergoing treatment was a tough journey. One that I’m still recovering from. Love, love Overcomers! They Welcomed me with open arms! So blessed to be apart of their group.

What a blessing it was to be included in Thrive's 'Thrive to a Beautiful You' workshop! I had fun connecting with other women going through treatment for breast cancer, learning how to put on make-up (as my skin and body changes during treatment) and share experiences with what works well at this time. The workshop leader was a survivor herself, welcoming and loving. To be given Thrive products was also a huge blessing at this time! I'd highly recommend this workshop and nonprofit. Thank you for what you do!! You now have a customer and supporter for life.

This is an amazing organization that gives back to women in such a special way. Emotional support with a focus on Faith and God. It is much needed and as a Warrior myself - much appreciated. Thank you for all you do for our community and Survivors in Need. We are overcomes together!

A cancer diagnosis rocked my world. The women of Overcomers were there to help me navigate the road ahead. Their lessons, which they share so freely, are lights on this path for so many.

I was very fortunate to be a part of such a great organization. The members are so helpful, considerate, and knowledgeable. I do not have a family history of cancer so had no knowledge of what to expect. I am forever thankful for all they do for us. Blessings always,

This team has selflessly given to so many people over the years. They are passionate about everything that they do.

I was blessed to have previously been selected to participate in the retreat hosted by Overcomers. The retreat exceeded my expectations. It was a fun but extremely emotional weekend full with faith based activities and discussions. It was a weekend where I came back spiritually recharged. I couldn't help but want to continue to participate and volunteer any spare time I had to this wonderful organization.

Overcomers has been an important part of my recovery from Breast Cancer providing spiritual nourishment and pink sisters to walk this journey with me.

I love this group of ladies so much! So happy to be able to connect with them virtually.

Overcomers, has been there for myself and many others, during my most difficult time. Always providing, encouragement, Love, tools for coping with the aftermath of Breast Cancer. Proud to be a part of Overcomers

Overcomers has been supporting breast cancer survivors in so many ways.
The workshop they offer is a great! So much support from all the members makes you feel you are never alone. Very pleased with Overcomers!

Thank You Trive ... for your support and Donations to Cancer patients.

Thank you to Mercedes for her friendship and her welcome to the Overcomers organization. I have been lost and scared going through the chemo treatment. Without the Overcomers welcome I don’t know what I would do .

I was diagnosed with breast cancer (DCIS) in September 2017. Around the time of my double mastectomy and DIEP flap reconstruction, I lost my mother to terminal breast cancer in December 2017. I was crushed with grief and not entirely sure how to begin the process of putting my life back together after my body had healed physically. I heard about Overcomers when I met Genny Small and Jessica Meyers, the President and Vice-President of Overcomers, while attending a meet-up organized by my plastic surgery office. They invited me to attend the fall 2018 Overcomers workshop. This workshop was a lifeline for me. It helped me process my grief, pursue spiritual and emotional healing, and come together with other women who were on a similar journey. As the workshop leaders invited the Holy Spirit to come alongside us, the Lord’s healing power and loving comfort reduced my anxiety and helped me start to see that even a cancer diagnosis can have a deeper purpose.

Overcomers has impacted my life in such a positive way that I am now excited to give back in any way that I can. I serve as Board Secretary in this important ministry and do my best to help ensure it is available for future overcomers. No woman should have to feel she is alone in the battle against breast cancer. I believe that Overcomers is a band of pink sisters – together walking forward along the journey and trusting that nothing is impossible for God. Overcomers truly helps women in their healing process to develop an abiding faith that He can bring good even out of darkness and uncertainty.

I was introduced to Overcomers 2 1/2 years after my cancer treatment completed and immediately Thought to myself “I don’t need this.” And boy was I wrong. After joining the workshop and listening to other survivor stories I knew I was in the right place. Overcomers helped me get back to life and understand what my new normal was. I’m now lucky enough to serve on the board and it gives me great pleasure to see the impact of Overcomers on survivors in San Antonio.

I was diagnosed with triple negative stage 1 breast cancer in mid June. I found this support group a few weeks later and am so glad I did. They genuinely care about other women and what we are going through by sharing their experience through their faith. I am so happy to have found them!

Working through concerns and feelings about a breast cancer diagnosis is never easy, but it is a necessary part of healing. Within minutes of talking to Jessica and Ginny I realized I had found someone who cared about my mental health and my physical health.
Meeting others in various stages of breast cancer treatment helps you feel free to discuss things others might not understand. Small groups allow you time to discuss and get to know someone who can answer your questions or needs answers from you.
The religious foundation makes this different from other programs. It is not forced, but simply there if you would like to explore ways to meet your concerns and feeling in a way that serves God.
I am so glad that I found this group.

I was diagnosed with Invasice Ductal Carcinoma back in May 2020. This group was recommended ded to me so I checked them out. I am so grateful I found them. They are amazing, helpful and encouraging. I took their thrive beauty and skincare class, and even reached out for help finding a wig. I'm thankful to have a group I can turn to during th chaos of all this!

Blessed to have learned about this group a couple of years ago while going though my own journey. Thank you for all you do!

God placed angels in my path Throughout my Breast cancer journey. Several of these angels would begin telling me about this wonderful organization - Overcomers. Feeling broken and lost and discouraged, I started researching the group, hoping that God was leading me to where I needed to be. Finally I had enough courage to sign up for the fall workshop. On the first night of the workshop, I was blessed with a sense of sisterhood and support. The workshop helped me process the effects of what a breast cancer diagnosis can do to someone’s life. Finally, I was surrounded by women who knew exactly how I felt, Surrounded by Women who have experienced what I had been through, And immediately surrounded by love and support and encouragement. This group has taught me that I am not alone as I walk this journey. The fall retreat was also amazing. It further helped me heal from the brokenness that I was feeling after chemo and radiation. It rekindled the fire that I needed to start the next phase of my journey - diep flap reconstruction. I left the workshops and the retreat with a deeper relationship with God and a renewed faith in God’s plan for me. Because I have been so blessed by this beautiful organization, I have joined the leadership team to serve other women who have been affected by breast cancer. God is blessing me in so many ways through servant leadership and I am forever grateful to Overcomers for the huge impact it has had on my life and the lives of so many other women. Praise be to God!

This was an amazing experience from beginning to end. It isn't even "the end" because the love from these ladies so freely given (to each one of us) will live in my heart forever. These ladies are dedicated and believe in this organization and it shows. When Covid-19 hit they didn’t miss a beat to figure a work-around and continue the meeting (via-Zoom) while keeping us safe, they willingly and enthusiastically stepped up!! Everything they did was with loving kindness and understanding because they have been there themselves. They also had experts address issues which is so reassuring.

It truly was more than I imagined. I would highly recommend this to anyone going through breast cancer regardless the stage they are currently experiencing.

I am humbled by the outpouring to love.

So thankful for the way God used these ladies to help me heal!!

Overcomers could not have come at a better time for me, though I truly wish I would have reached out sooner. Jessica Meyers was the first “Pink Sisters” I connected with once I received the breast cancer diagnosis in 2015. Initially, I believed that opting to have a double mastectomy would eliminate further risk. A few weeks later I found out that the cancer had spread to my lymph nodes. I decided to make the tough decision to go through eight rounds of aggressive chemotherapy. It changed my life. I was in remission and began to recover from the brokenness, however my life never seemed to return to “normal.”

In late 2019 I was again diagnosed with breast cancer resulting in surgery and radiation treatments. During the treatment my family and friends were surprised by my resilience. However, what they didn’t know was internally, I was in a fight for my life. I found myself crying in a parking lot on the phone with Jessica Meyers from Overcomers asking her if I was normal. She invited me to attend an Overcomers workshop and that was exactly where I needed to be. I can take comfort knowing that I am surrounded by women that have shared similar experiences.

I am blessed to be a part of the Overcomers ministry. Through this ministry I have gained greater hope for the future and I am honored to be a part of Overcomers leadership to encourage others that are battling.

Thank you for the support and great experience. For all the men and women diagnosed with breast cancer, please know you are not alone. Contact Overcomers today to receive the support and guidance that you need. No one should fight this battle alone! - E. Ramirez

Overcomers is dedicated to their mission of helping women transition from active treatment into survivorship by providing guidance, support and hope. The information and tools learned in the workshops, as well as the wonderful friendships made, are invaluable and help with healing both spiritually and mentally. I absolutely love this amazing organization.

Overcomers continues to serve those in the breast cancer community. I have personally seen lives transformed and healing take place after participating in a workshop. Overcomers is such a blessing in my life and I am proud to have been a participant back in 2015 and have had the honor of serving on the board years later.

The unknowns and what-ifs of a cancer diagnosis are paralyzing. It takes every effort to put one foot in front of the other while working toward the prize of becoming – and staying – cancer-free. Surprisingly, the day my doctors reported an “all clear” and an encouraging path forward wasn't a “shout from the mountaintop” experience. Yes, the crisis was over, but emotionally it felt like any other appointment on an otherwise normal day.

With the majority of my medical appointments behind us, my family members seemed to quickly settle back into their old norms. I strangely couldn’t. I found myself day after day watching hours of TV unmotivated for much else. Hadn’t I reached the finish line? Why couldn’t I celebrate? Exhale? I found myself stuck and no longer found joy or fulfillment in any activities I did before cancer. I felt broken, defeated and mentally a shell of the person I once was.

Then came Overcomers' nine-week workshop. Through a lot of heart work and prayer, I learned that everything I was feeling, wrestling with, battling and experiencing was all normal. I WASN’T BROKEN AFTERALL!! And I met a community of incredible women who struggled with the same things. There are so many layers involved in any cancer fight. It isn’t just beating it medically, its learning to live in VICTORY despite – and maybe even because of - the diagnosis. Overcomers has truly been life changing for me and my family. My cancer journey now has purpose.

Overcomers is an amazing group of women helping women going through breast cancer to receive spiritual and emotional healing. They have created a loving and generous community of encouragement and understanding that empowers survivors to live victoriously.

I have had the honor of serving on the board of Overcomers for almost two years as their professional photographer. I can’t recommend this group enough or say enough praises to do it justice. It has been a blessing to me and I have seen such love and compassion and understanding to all the lovely ladies that have come through. It is a place of acceptance and healing and everyone walks through this journey together. This group is a great place to be and you will be surrounded by so many amazing ladies!

I was diagnosed with breast cancer stage 2, grade 3, October of 2017. My world was turned upside down. I was lost and had no one to turn to ask questions. On a leap of faith I went on a weekend beach retreat with Overcomers. I did not know anyone, did not know where we were staying but my heart was telling me I needed to go. I was so glad I went to the retreat. This group is a firm foundation for any one going through breast cancer. They are focus on healing the whole person, mind. body and soul.

Hi!! I just wanted to give a huge shout out to this amazing organization for us survivors, Overcomers! The support and restoration I have received from their Worships to their divine Retreat I was able to be apart of last year has been healing and fulfilling to my breast cancer journey. I’ve been able to heal in community with other pink sisters who get it like no other and are by your side so you are not alone. Thank you Overcomers for all you do for our pink community in Jesus name!

I am a breast cancer survivor. After all treatments are done, you are left feeling lost. I heard about this organization and attended their 9 week course and also their retreat. I learned ways of coping from the teachers as well as the other survivors. Being a part of this group helped me realize I'm not alone. We all walk together. The retreat had wonderful food, teaching,sharing and caring. God is always with us and so are our pink sisters.

The Overcomers Class was a Blessing in my life. All these amazing women share their own journeys as Breast Cancer Survivors to help someone like me to rebuild my life. I made many friends along this journey and have learned that God doesn’t ever give you something you can’t handle. Thank you Pink Sisters for this amazing experience.

Overcomers has had a tremendous impact on my life. When my wife embarked on her breast cancer journey, we had know idea why she was going this. Today, we know it was because God need us to share our testimony. Overcomers has given both her and I (through the caregivers course) to be there for others who are facing the same challenge.

Volunteering with Overcomers has been an amazing experience. Not only is it a great place to volunteer, but the changes you see in the women's lives spiritually, mentally, and physically that go through the workshops is incredible. If you are a breast cancer survivor looking for a workshop, I highly recommend Overcomers!

What a blessing Overcomers has been to me! I’m so thankful for the time I had in the Overcomers workshop, for the special speakers who came to touch my heart; the prayers fervently prayed over me; the ladies with whom we shared our struggles with breast cancer; being equipped to move forward living as breast cancer patients/survivors/fighters/thrivers; and most importantly, the faith and hope we share as Daughters of the King of Kings. Many thanks to Genny and Jessica for making their vision and mission for Overcomers a reality for us. May God continue to grow and bless this ministry for all the women who fight against breast cancer.

Facilitating the men’s workshop for the husbands of breast cancer survivors has given me an outlet to share my experience with others. Watching your wife go through breast cancer leaves you feeling helpless at times. By teaching this class, I am able to encourage other husbands in their role as caregivers.

I have been so blessed by this group! They are amazing strong beautiful women who are seeking to encourage and uplift others in this journey. I have been so blessed to work with them in my photography business and I fully support and believe in there goals. I would highly recommend this group to anyone dealing with breast cancer. They will be with you every step
Of the way!! Love all of them like sisters!!

Wow! I never thought that a class like Overcomers would help me so much. This program helps you deal with the emotional and spiritual aspects of breast cancer. I'm so thankful for the leaders and the wonderful ladies that I met this past Spring.

Wow, what an amazing healing process Overcomers provides! They have created a safe, compassionate, God loving environment to share your hurts with ladies who have also experienced the same hurts. I am beyond grateful for the support I recieve and able to give through this non-profit.

Breast cancer has way of robbing you of your identity and confidence. I was diagnosed in 2014 had chemo then two years later had a recurrence and had to start all over again. I was broken and felt very alone. Overcomers helped me through all of that. This group of strong, supportive and courageous women helped me put the pieces back together. I have also formed bonds and friendships with people which is what I had been searching for. I'm forever grateful to be a part of such a wonderful organization.

Overcomes was a critical part of my healing. I didn’t realize that the most challenging part, was not getting the diagnosis for the first time or even the treatment that followed, but what was to come when everything was over with. I was broken emotionally. I described it as a “funk”. Overcomers helped out me on a healing path of joy and hope! An extra bonus was meeting so many strong, inspirational women!

How do I describe the experience?!?! One word...Sisterhood!! I have met so many leaders in this group and each of them have been so kind and embracing. They truly have a passion for helping others and go to great lengths to make sure you are not alone. I couldn't have met a more supportive group of ladies. I look forward to attending the classes and completing my healing process.

Overcomers has been a positive part of my breast cancer journey. It has helped me to find a new normal for myself after walking down the cancer path. I have made lifelong friends and found sisters who I can relate to on a regular basis. It has helped me to grow as a person and find strength that I thought I had lost. Wonderful group of women.

Overcomers truly helped me during a time when I felt very alone coming out of cancer treatment. I met so many amazing women with incredible stories, and I discovered many areas of my life that still needed healing. This program helped me walk through that healing and begin to embrace the new me, with hope.
