Fox News contributor and Fox Nation host Rachel Campos-Duffy recently shared an inspiring message of faith and resilience as she stood by the bedside of her infant daughter, Valentina StellaMaris Duffy, who underwent successful open-heart surgery. Campos-Duffy’s message of hope resonated deeply with many Americans during a time of uncertainty, particularly as the nation grappled with the challenges of the coronavirus pandemic.
Campos-Duffy, well-known for her work on Fox Nation’s “Bible Study: Messages of Hope,” emphasized the importance of prayer and staying connected to God through difficult times. Speaking from her daughter’s hospital room, she expressed gratitude for Valentina’s recovery and offered encouragement to those facing hardships. “Praying and staying connected to God has been especially important for me during this time, not just because of what our nation is going through with the coronavirus, but because, as you can see right here, I’ve had a little girl who’s in a good mood right now,” she shared.
Valentina was born in October, one month premature, and was diagnosed with two holes in her heart, requiring delicate and complex surgical intervention. On March 23, Campos-Duffy and her husband, former Rep. Sean Duffy, R-Wis., took to Facebook to update family, friends, and supporters, announcing that their daughter had successfully made it through a three-hour open-heart procedure at Lurie Children’s Hospital in Chicago.
“In the midst of all this, she had heart surgery and she’s recovering now,” Campos-Duffy said, expressing both relief and hope. She found solace in a particular Bible verse, Joshua 1:9, which states, “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.”
Campos-Duffy reflected on how this passage had provided her with strength during Valentina’s health battle. “Those words give me comfort with little Valentina,” she explained. “But also I think about so many of the people in our country—small business owners, families, all the children and their parents on this [hospital] floor who are going through medical issues right now.”
She acknowledged the widespread sense of vulnerability brought about by both personal struggles and national crises. “If we think about this thing that’s happening right now, it can be so overwhelming. It almost feels like we’re paralyzed. And it is in those moments, especially, that we need to pray,” she urged viewers.
Campos-Duffy encouraged Americans to use this time to focus on what truly matters—faith, family, and community. “Many of us are feeling that vulnerability that I think God in some ways wants us all to feel because it is when we feel vulnerable and scared and we realize that we’re not in control, that we really start to see what really matters in life,” she shared.
Concluding her heartfelt message, Campos-Duffy extended prayers and well wishes to her audience. “My prayer is also for all of you listening. I hope that in this time you’re staying healthy, you’re staying safe, but that also you’re finding the time to regroup, recenter, and get reconnected with your families and your community.”

“Praying and staying connected to God has been especially important for me during this time, not just because of what our nation is going through with the coronavirus, but because, as you can see right here, I’ve had a little girl who’s in a good mood right now,” said Campos Duffy on Fox Nation’s “Bible Study: Messages of Hope.”
Valentina StellaMaris Duffy was born in October, one month before her actual due date. She was also born with two holes in her heart that had to be surgically repaired.
Campos-Duffy and her husband, former Rep. Sean Duffy, R-Wis., posted a video on Facebook on March 23, informing family, friends and followers that Valentina had made it out of a three-hour open-heart surgery at Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago.
“In the midst of all this, she had heart surgery and she’s recovering now,” said Campos-Duffy in the Fox Nation episode.
The Fox Nation host said one Bible verse has been particularly meaningful to her through this ordeal: Joshua 1:9. The verse which reads, “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.”
“Those words give me comfort with little Valentina,” said Campos-Duffy. “But also I think about so many of the people in our country, small business owners, families, all the children and their parents on this [hospital] floor who are going through medical issues right now.”
“If we think about this thing that’s happening right now, it can be so overwhelming. It almost feels like we’re paralyzed. And it is in those moments, especially, I think that we need to pray.”
“Many of us are feeling that vulnerability that I think God in some ways wants us all to feel because it is when we feel vulnerable and scared and we realize that we’re not in control, that we really start to see what really matters in life,” she said.
“So my prayer is also for all of you listening. I hope that in this time you’re staying healthy, you’re staying safe, but that also you’re finding the time to regroup, recenter and get reconnected with your families and your community,” Campos-Duffy concluded.
