Hello friend,
Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, O righteous,
and shout for joy, all you upright in heart!
Psalm 32:11
Today, we see and face things we have never seen or experienced.
But my friend, Jesus, has not changed!
As we have entered this season of celebrating the birth of Jesus, I encourage you to choose joy, celebrate Jesus, and share His love with others. May our faith grow as we gather to pray and may our joy in the Lord overflow.
Ministry Updates
As I share the words and scripture above, I want you to know that I am committed to choosing joy in my life. Even though it is very different from what some would call a normal career path, I am grateful for the path God has me walking. The Lord has opened multiple opportunities for me to minister and serve Him with the gifts, talents, and passion He has given me.
These opportunities of ministry include ministry along the 1-12 corridor, diving deeper into ministry in the Baton Rouge area, leading prayer groups in Washington, DC, networking with other national ministries and supporting DC area pastors and ministry leaders, plus leading four weekly prayer calls. These opportunities provide ongoing connections that allow Jesus and His love to be shared with individuals and families.
In addition to the ministry opportunities I have shared, I remain grateful for God’s favor to minister to Louisiana State Troopers and the civilians that work with them. They have the heart to serve the people of Louisiana, and the civilians serving in support roles have the heart to assist the State Troopers to be the best of their ability. It is a blessing to see a lot of this work up close as I offer them messages of hope and encouragement.
In addition to these opportunities, I send out a weekly prayer post through the Family Research Council. If you’d like to receive those posts, please sign up for them below.
