Leader: First Lady Wanda Norris
In 2016, the Lord gave me a vision about starting a Girls Group/Ministry to help the young girls of New Destiny discover how beautiful and valuable they truly are and who they are purposed to be. I shared this vision with my husband and several other people in the congregation, but was scared to really step out on it. My biggest fear was the idea of starting something that I COULDN’T finish. Well, needless to say, the Lord has kindly reminded me that His Plan will always be greater than what “I” can see and/or handle… (imagine that). So with that in mind, I am stepping out in faith and obedience to launch G.E.M.S., a faith based ministry for New Destiny girls between the ages of 7-12 initially, but prayerfully will branch out to other ages and the community as the Lord leads. I sincerely solicit your prayers and support as we (Me & your Daughters) embark upon this new endeavor. – First Lady Wanda
