Building these bonds of trust and friendship will allow her to better understand the community's needs and work hand in hand to address them.

Throughout her faith journey she has held on to Romans 8:28 as a guiding light in her life. This powerful verse reminds her that even in the midst of challenges and hardships, God orchestrates everything for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. It serves as a constant reminder that no matter how bleak a situation may appear, God is working behind the scenes, weaving a beautiful tapestry of blessings and growth.
