Meet Camille
Hello, I’m Camille Cornaby! I’m a mother of eight—seven children of my own and one stepchild—and a grandmother and great-grandmother. Having been married, I’m now in a single season of life, with a family I adore and so much love to share. They are one of my greatest joys.
I’m also an artist and art teacher who still feels like a kid at heart. I once told my students I was turning 109. You should have seen their faces! One student guessed a much younger age, and I said, ‘You have an A+ in class. Thank you so much!’
Life has brought me many challenges. I have felt broken emotionally, spiritually, physically, and financially. Some struggles are still part of my life, yet I often say I’m the happiest woman in the world. How can that be? Because I have come to know for myself that Jesus Christ is my Savior.
He has healed my heart and spirit, and for decades, I have lived on miracles. I still face physical challenges, but I trust in His care and His timing. Looking back, I’m grateful for what my hardships have taught me. They have helped me understand others more deeply and offer encouragement as they face their own difficult seasons.
Wendy and I met after I moved to Utah. I was teaching private art lessons, and she joined my class. It was clear she had a gift for drawing. One day she asked, ‘Camille, have you ever thought of writing a children’s book?’
‘Why, yes, I have,’ I said. ‘Let me show you the illustrations.’
She looked at the drawings and said, ‘Let’s do it!’
That conversation began a beautiful friendship and creative partnership. Together, we published The Miracle of Jesus and later created its second edition. Along the way, we’ve shared an amazing journey of faith, learning, and creating.
Our hope is that something here will encourage you on your own journey. Take a look around, explore our resources, and feel welcome to share your thoughts or ask questions. We would love to hear what’s on your heart.
