I Would Do It All Again

Donna's roller coaster ride of life has been transformed into an exquisite tapestry. She gives a blueprint that others can follow. The design leads to success, peace, happiness, power and fulfillment of life.


Rev. Dr. Donna Andes was raised as a Catholic. She felt God drawing her into a closer walk with Him. Following the calling, she became a Franciscan Sister. She received her Bachelors of Science in Nursing from Marquette University. Being called to the missions as a nun, she was permitted to go to the Appalachian Mountains at Thomas, West Virginia. There she supervised a Home Health Agency and designed Cortland Acres Nursing Home. After leaving the convent she married a gentleman she met in Thomas. After 39 months of a honeymoon marriage, he was tragically removed from her life. She prayed for another Christian husband and met her second husband of 28 years at a prayer meeting. He brought much spiritual baggage into their relationship. Donna wanted to run but there was no place to go. After seeking the Lord there came a solution.

During Donna's lifetime she became a nurse serving as an Operating Room Supervisor and a Director of Nursing Service, author, tailor and gardener. She was president of a local International Aglow Chapter, Representative for Primerica Financial Services, Missionary, Ordained Minister, Jail Minister, Intercessor, and Teacher of Nutrition and Bible. She received her Bachelors, Masters, and Doctors Degree in Theology from Life Christian University of Tampa. Through a dream, God took her back to Thomas. She holds prayer meetings, is a part time Distributor for Life Vantage, which is anti-aging and a forerunner in nutrigenomics, preaches at Cortland Acres Nursing Home and ministers with other Pastors ushering in revival.
