Tell us about your business/ministry.

In 2015, I founded and gave leadership to the CCBC Women’s Ministry, Sisters Aiding IN Transforming Sisters (S.A.IN.T.S.), which focuses on cultivating, redesigning, transforming, and empowering women in their individual and spiritual lives. Through regular group enrichment sessions, retreats, conferences, coaching sessions, mentoring sessions and apprenticeship workshops, S.A.IN.T.S are equipping women of all walks of life with the necessary skills and tools required to enhance the development of their spiritual, mental, emotional, physical and financial lives.  

 What area do you feel as though you have been called to dominate in and why?

Spiritually – I dominate in the area of Prayer.  Early in my call to Ministry, God gave me an assignment to interceed on a Ministry website, where Ministries from all over the World were a part of this site.  God called me to pray, reaching out to those requesting prayer and for the Pastors, Bishops and Ministry leaders.  As God leads I continue in this area with an anointing power from God to put the devil to flight.  Additionally, I dominate in the area of Service.  I love serving others and supporting others in reaching there full potential in what God has called them to do.  My Motto is “Working To Serve.”
