In 2015, I spoke at a women's retreat, and there were 112 women. It was nice, but it was missing something. At that retreat, God spoke to me about the power of QUALITY vs QUANTITY. Quantity means - A considerable number or amount. Quality means - The degree of excellence. After one of the sessions at that retreat, the Lord led me to Proverbs 11:30: "He who wins souls is wise." In prayer, the Lord said to me, "To win means to OBTAIN it." Obtain means - To acquire or secure! At that moment, I realized we/I had been doing discipleship all wrong. Having a lot of members did not mean I had a successful ministry. Though MANY followed Jesus, only 12 were committed to Him and the mission. The rest were only following to get, take, and receive. So, I made it up in my mind that I would chase quality and not quantity! In September 2016, the first Freedom Women's Retreat was born. I had absolutely no idea what I was doing. God said go, and I went. There were 16 women, and I witnessed a mighty move of God in the lives of EVERY woman. In 2017, at my second Freedom Women's Retreat, God met us there, and He reminded me never to chase QUANTITY, MONEY, TITLES or FAME. I realized we were having an Experience at that retreat, so I changed the name from Retreat to Experience. God promised me that He would always meet us there and give those who LET Him an experience with Him they would never forget. In 2018, we had our first Freedom Women's meeting in person; honestly, I had no expectations. It was intimate and in the words of the ladies who attended, "Life changing." At that meeting, I learned that most people revere the building more than they revere the spirit of God. Quoting the word, but not knowing and living the word of God. A few months later, I had my 2018 Freedom Women's Experience, and it was at that experience I realized how many "Leaders" were building numbers for the building, but their people were bound. They were giving people titles and roles when they needed to be delivered and taught how to access the FREEDOM that Jesus Christ paid for! At that moment, I vowed to God that I would win souls, one soldier at a time. To most, that may seem like a waste of time, but for THE Good Shepard, who left the 99 just to save ME! It is music to His ears. In March of 2019, this scripture fed my WHY.
Matthew 7:21-23 "Not everyone that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? And in thy name have cast out devils? And in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." It was then that I made it up in my heart that getting women into heaven was my MAIN goal, not increasing my numbers/membership or perfecting my brand, but helping women hear the words, "Well done, my good and faithful servant." So yes, we are small in numbers but mighty in power! I will never compromise for numbers, money, or fame. I am a change agent for God, and I will save as many as I can while I can...

I feel like I stumbled upon a group that's sitting around a campfire and they're casting their cares into the fire. Take the sickness, take the worries, take all of the attacks of the enemy and toss them into the fire to burn for God! Knowing that He will give us beauty for our ashes!!! I feel like the anointing over this group is so powerful!
Most people would hear about a person having cancer in both kidney's and get worried, but not this group! We KNOW God is a healer, and that He is bigger than anything that comes against us! I thank God for bringing me to a group of women that helps me to be my greatest self...
