Start 2025 with a Vision Rooted in Faith


Dear Faith-Driven Leaders,

Welcome to a new year of growth and purpose! In the latest episode of Entrusted to Lead, I share actionable steps to help you align your vision and leadership goals with God’s promises for 2025.

This year, the Entrusted to Lead platform enters an exciting new chapter, delivering even more impactful content tailored to the unique challenges and opportunities faced by faith-driven leaders.

This year, we're redefining our focus on leadership challenges and providing a deeper integration of faith and strategy through a monthly newsletter, two blogs and two podcast episodes!

Each week you'll receive information to navigate your leadership journey with confidence, align your vision with your faith-driven values, and create lasting impact in your organization and beyond.

Let’s step boldly into 2025, grounded in God’s promises and prepared to make an impact!

Blessings,

P.S. In two weeks, I'm heading on my first mission trip to Costa Rica to join with nine other women who are prayerfully serving at Faithful Servant Missions, a Christian Community Center in the Bajo Tejares district of San Ramon.

How you can help!

I'm prayerfully asking for donations to provide scholarships for local women to attend our program. Our main focus will be on supporting the women in the community through daily Bible Study and leadership development. On our last day together, women will have the opportunity to visit a Butterfly Chapel where we will worship and have communion.

This is just one of the experiences of faith and life we have planned in our time there as we support the women of Bajo Tejares and share God’s love.

You can sponsor a woman to attend the Butterfly Chapel, which includes transportation, admission, and lunch, for $40 per person.

P.S.S. Your prayers would be greatly appreciated as well!
