Lisa, now 60, thankfully felt supported and hear by the writers and creators of the show, explaining, “I’m sure there were some parts that I wasn’t offered, but that’s OK. I don’t feel like I had any backlash because of it.”
This was not the only time the actress made a choice between fame and faith. She famously turned down the role of Rachel on “Friends,” feeling it would deal too often with sexual topics.
“I don’t regret not taking that opportunity. My kids, on the other hand… I remember my daughter once said, ‘Are you telling me that [Jennifer Aniston’s ex] Brad Pitt could have been my father?”
The star also has been friends with many other like-minded stars, including late “Happy Days” star Erin Moran.
Moran even claimed that Whelchel is the one to have helped her find Jesus Christ after the two met for the NBC made-for-T.V. movie “Twirl”.
Lisa herself found God by chance when she was just 10. Dressed in their only nice dresses, she and a friend decided to go somewhere fun in their special clothes. They wound up at a neighborhood church.
Whelchel realized that she could get free donuts and orange juice every week if she attended Sunday school. Over time, of course, it became more than that.
“Every time I walked through those church doors, it felt like my heart had found its home.”
It’s clear that the actresses’s faith has led her on the right path throughout her career and family life. In addition to her fulfilling marriage with Pete, Lisa finds immense joy in her children and three grandchildren.
According to her, they hold the utmost importance in her life, reflecting the deep love and significance she places on her role as a parent. She frequently shares adorable moments of her grandchildren on Instagram, showcasing her immense pride in them and the deep affection she holds for them.
”Just to know your children are solid, have good hearts, and have found spouses who are amazing people who love them — there is no greater joy,” she says.
We are certainly impressed that she was able to be so forthright in her faith at so young an age.
This woman came across an old, filthy luggage in a bush
A nurse from Essex, England, found an abandoned suitcase on the pavement on her way to work. Her instincts told her to go closer and look around. When the woman opened it, she was genuinely surprised!
In a bush was found a bag that contained fifteen kittens that were no older than three or five weeks.
The suitcase has multiple holes punched in it so that air could get inside and let the poor kittens breathe. It seems that whoever left them must have wanted them to live. Additionally, the “luggage” was deliberately disposed of next to a well-known animal refuge.
A shelter employee named Alison Gamble was contacted by the nurse for assistance. After examining the animals, Gamble was pleased with how well the kittens were doing, noting that “it’s clear that the kittens have been away from their mother.”
Since the kittens have not yet been weaned, feeding them to a person is necessary to avoid nutritional problems.
Fortunately, caregivers at the facility are ready to search for the 15 souls until they find a home. At this point, the kittens are too young and delicate to be let out into the wild.
“Although the others initially seem to be in good health, we want to closely monitor them to ensure their overall well-being. Six of them exhibit some symptoms of eye infection.”
