I greatly admire the dedication of Solomon and Clara [our project directors]. They have been an example to me of what it means to serve God whole heartedly”. Brenna has started Hearts Flourishing in order to connect project directors around the world to resources they wouldn’t otherwise have access to. “My hope is to connect with other leaders around the world that are active in creating change in their community. I believe that when we work together, we have the ability to create great change”. Brenna is passionate about supporting people at all levels. “There is no problem too ‘small’ or ‘insignificant’ to be addressed”.

  • Secretary

    April is a California resident whose passion is working with children. She has had a career as both a teacher and a librarian. Because of her many international friends, she has been inspired to know more people from other countries. This combined with her desire to live out her faith and share it with nations has been a powerful foundation for her mission work in the Amazon and Haiti. She and her husband (Steve) live by faith, serving people locally and internationally.

    “I believe that education both secular and spiritual is the key to shaping one's future. I also believe that international health initiatives take care of the body while feeding the mind and spirit. [Looking at our project in India] I'm excited to see how these children's lives will be blessed through this ministry. I look forward to their influence on the future of India. I also know that God uses non-profits to lift up, encourage, and strengthen those doing the work in India. I pray that He will be known through the people and the work done.”
