Because you matter

Acacia & Gold began from a deep desire to fall in love with studying God’s word. That you would be inspired and excited to dive deeper into your relationship with Jesus. That you would be reminded of whose you are, and who has called you into His loving embrace. Our hope is that you would be encouraged as your faith continues to grow. As your faith continues to grow, we hope that you will allow God’s Spirit to move in and through you to impact the lives around you.

Acacia & Gold was founded by Austie Eckley in 2018. Austie is a wife and mom. Her heart to serve her neighbors is evident in her volunteer work at many local organizations like: Portland Rescue Mission, Father's Heart, OHSU, and her home church. She is also a frequent guest speaker at women's events, school chapels, and local churches. Austie experienced radical life change through people pouring God’s love out on her in her darkest moments of addiction and trauma. Through that love, she has been moved with compassion to serve those who are often unseen. Her heart for Acacia & Gold is to inspire and empower others to “go and do likewise,” like Jesus commands us to (Luke 10:37).
