ITS A NEW YEAR!!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR PEOPLES'!

ITS 2011 and I am sssssooooooo excited about this year!  In 2010, I brought it in with a few colleagues in Toronto, ON while working on a musical called Virtuosity. Once the show closed in February, I took some much needed time off and hid somewhere where no one could find me for about 4 weeks. I was moving way too fast and I needed to hear from God. To make a long story short, God gave me everything I needed and as I look back at 2010 I must say...it was GREAT! I made a basket list of my accomplishments in 2010 (shout out to @imkeepingup for the Idea)...

I FOUND BALANCE IN MY LIFE

I WAS BLESSED TO SEND MANY FAMILY MEMBERS, FRIENDS, AND OLD NEIGHBORS TO SEE DREAMGIRLS AT THE FOX THEATER IN DETROIT FOR CHRISTMAS

GOD HAS ASSIGNED TO ME A NEW PROJECT TO WORK ON THAT I AM EXTREMELY EXCITED ABOUT! (Shout out to my Partner @acoolchristian) This project WILL serve out its purpose because it was all God's plan...I am just humbled that he gave it to me....stay tuned :-)

#6

I FOUND MY NEW CHURCH HOME ABUNDANT LIFE FAMILY WORSHIP CENTER. I would visit this church a lot while attending Perfecting Faith's Church in Long Island. PFC was a phenomenal church, great Bible Teaching, great people, but the commute from NJ to Long Island was a JOURNEY that I could no longer take. One day I went to see my Pastor from Detroit ( The AMAZING Marvin Winans) preach at Abundant  Life and afterwards I had a thorough conversation with him about....a lot....but he helped me make the decision of joining ALFWC and it was one of the BEST decisions of my life. The Word being taught is VALID, the Worship experience is UNBELIEVABLE and the people are KIND, NON JUDGEMENTAL and ANOINTED! Our Pastor @gcsearight is a Intelligent man of God with a youthful spirit! Did I mention our first lady Pastor Mary is THE BEST IN THE WORLD!!! All that to say...I'm happy to be a part of a great ministry.

When the shot was fired to take off, I thought " wow this is gonna be a piece of cake" until 5 minutes into the race when I looked back and no one was behind me lololololol...but I kept it moving and completed in less than 2 hours! The best memory was having my friends run the last few feet with me until I made it across the finish line..I LOVE MY CREW!!! We Run Brooklyn...LITERALLY!

#1

 I CAME TO KNOW GOD IN A MORE INTIMATE WAY! Its nothing like getting to know God better than before. I am forever working on my relationship with him. I am so BLESSED to know him and even more BLESSED to know that HE KNOWS ME and CALLS ME FRIEND! :-)
