Rachel Zwayne was born and raised in New Zealand. At the age of 14, her father’s ministry (Living Waters) relocated to Southern California, where she eventually met her husband and became the mother of five children. Rachel finds great delight in encouraging other women in their role as mothers, wives, and homeschool teachers. She has done this in her capacity as a leader and teacher of multiple women’s groups and as a conference and retreat speaker. Rachel has been married to Emeal (“E.Z.”) for 29 years. They live in Southern California and enjoy being grandparents now. Rachel also has an online ministry called Joyful Mothers, where she seeks to encourage mothers and wives to love and serve their families.
