The Care Net Peninsula family is growing again, and we’re excited to introduce you to one of our newest team members, Jessica Dykema!
Jessica officially joined our team this September as a Client Advocate. She recently completed her advocate training and is already meeting one-on-one with the women we serve. If you’ve been around CNP for a while now, you know just how vital our advocates are, and we’re grateful to have Jessica stepping into this critical role with wisdom, compassion, and a heart to serve.
Jessica and her husband, Steve, have been married for 20 years. Together, they have two “homegrown” boys and a daughter who was lovingly handpicked from India. As a family, they love traveling internationally and spending time outdoors, especially hiking!
Jessica brings with her a rich background in ministry and education. She holds a B.S. in Bible and Intercultural Studies and a master’s in Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) from Columbia International University. After 16 years of homeschooling, she’s currently pursuing certification as a professional life coach.
Her journey to Care Net Peninsula started when a CNP donor invited her to the Peninsula4Life Dinner and encouraged her to consider applying for the Client Advocate role. Before officially joining our team, Jessica also served as a Church Mentor, walking alongside women during this new season of their lives.
Jessica is passionate about using her God-given talents to make a lasting impact for the Kingdom. She’s a member of LibertyLive Church and is excited to serve women in our community with truth and grace.
We’re grateful that God led Jessica to our team, and we look forward to seeing how He will use her in this new season!

When I was a little girl, age 5, my mother had an abortion. There were medical reasons, but the effects of that decision were life-long for her and for my father as well as for myself and likely my other siblings.
You believe in life. It’s sacred. It’s undeniably alive. So you protect it. You speak up, you give money to Care Net Peninsula, and you pray that pregnant women won’t default to abortion. And that is what happens – women do choose life.
Too often in our culture, narratives don’t reflect reality. This is true on both sides of the political aisle and within all our different subcultures. Sometimes the lies don’t matter much – “Wow, Santa came and ate all those cookies! — Definitely NOT Dad!!” Other times, lives are at stake. If I’ve learned anything in my time at Care Net, it’s that the abortion industry lies, and then lies about lying.
You may have heard about a very important case being heard by the Supreme Court this Wednesday, Dec. 1st – the case of Dobbs vs Jackson Women’s Health.
