She met her spiritual parents, Bishop Kendall and Pastor LaYona Washington (Faith Temple Christian Center International, Germany, www.ftcci.com), who poured tremendously into her life. She served as an usher, in the choir, the Hospitality Ministry, a member of the Praise and Worship, the Youth Department (Assistant Director and Director), and Sunday School Department as a teacher for adults and the youth. Bishop Williams and The Washingtons were transferred to other assignments but the spirit filled teaching continued as she started to serve at the New Dimensional Christian Ministry, Camp Henry under Bishop Michael and Evangelist Martha Collins, where she acknowledged her call into the ministry and united with the Holy Deliverance Church of God Foundation of Truth. Under the leadership of Apostle Bennie L. Kelly she was ordained in 2004 as a minister. In 2005 she was ordained as Evangelist. In 2007, after seeking the Lord, the Lord showed her through Jeremiah 1-3 and she began to understand that she had a greater calling on her life. She acknowledged the Prophetic anointing on her life and was licensed as such in 2011 and she now walks in the Office of the Prophet as God has ordained for her and is under the leadership and covering of Bishop Kenny and Pastor/Prophetess Carrie Kendrick, South Central Region Bishop and Elect Lady ( Bishop Kendrick | UCFI Global ).
