Welcome to Elevator to Heaven.


I'm author Colleen Pressprich, a wife and mom with a passion for helping other families grow their domestic church. 


 The site gets it’s name from Therese’s desire to find the easy way to Heaven, the elevator that is the Arms of Christ, and I often find myself clinging to St. Therese's wisdom during the tough seasons of motherhood. She has been a dear friend of mine for over a decade and constantly calls me deeper and challenges me in my faith journey. Her simple confidence in the Lord is what I strive for in my own life, and I admire her for her ability to rest in the Love of God always. Her testimony that her vocation is to love, is a battle cry this broken world needs, and somewhat of a family motto over here at our house.

More about Me

 I am a former missionary and Montessori teacher who uses all of the lessons learned in the mission field and the classroom to live her dream of homeschooling and ministering in the Domestic Church. 


In my spare time, I write, blog, cultivate our classroom and curriculum, and create handmade faith-filled items for our family and friends. You can most often find in yoga pants, surrounded by piles of laundry, looking for my cold coffee.  


If you’re looking for more of our loud and messy journey towards Heaven, you can follow me on instagram @colleenpressprich.
