Debbie Cooney

My name is Debbie Cooney; I grew up in Slippery Rock, PA. I am a retired mother of three daughters and Grammy to five (one in heaven) joyous grandchildren. I moved to Knoxville when my youngest daughter Jamie Heard, a founding member of Faithfully Restored, followed in her two sisters' footsteps and attended the University of Tennessee. I fell in love with Tennessee and now call Nashville home. We don’t always know why God leads us in a certain direction but when William died, I realized why God wanted me in Nashville.
I love to travel, especially to Chicago, where I have 2 other grandsons. I enjoy reading historical fiction mostly about WWII, and last year traveled to Europe on a 75th Anniversary of D-Day tour.
I have done accounting for over 40 years working for family businesses, women-owned businesses and nonprofit organizations. It is with great honor that I can support my daughter and her friends in their mission of helping and caring for hurting women by showing them support through God's love.

Beth Frankenberg

I was born and raised in Nashville and live in Brentwood with my husband, Paul, and twin 8 year old boys, Andrew and Cannon. We love to travel to the mountains, spend time together as a family outdoors and being as active as we can. In my spare time, I enjoy exercising, volunteering at Scales Elementary and Brentwood United Methodist Day School, devoting time and energy to Faithfully Restored Women, reading and spending time with my family. I have a professional background in Social Work but have had the blessing of being home with my boys since they were born. However, once they started kindergarten, I allowed myself to lose connection with others and my struggle with anxiety spiraled. It was during this lost time that I found the women of Faithfully Restored. I was drawn to their mission because of their hope in God, their authenticity, connection and desire to show kindness to women in need. And, they are a true example of how important support is.

Lisa Shacklett

My name is Lisa Shacklett, and I welcome you with open arms to this community. It’s not a mistake that you have found Faithfully Restored; our paths were meant to cross. I’m a native Nashvillian, wife of 34 years to Roger, mom to Shelby/Grayson and Clark/Taylor, dog mom to Annabelle, and soon-to-be grandmother to Shelby’s twin girls due in a few short months! I stay busy serving as executive director of Young Leaders Council, owner of The Wedding Plate, and an AirBnb host – roles that I never dreamed of a few years ago. My plans were different than God’s plans, but He took my pain and heartbreak and showed me a different way. He knows my path, and He knows your path, your pain, and your heartbreak. I’m finally learning to be still, trust, and really rest in Him, and I invite you to join me in that journey. Let me know how I can serve you.
