I could not be more excited about our new Board of Directors, who will be leading Faces With Names into our new season of ministry.
About six months ago, I began working with a consultant to bring more clarity to the mission, vision and message of Faces With Names. In some of our early conversations, the topic of Faces With Names becoming it’s own 501c3, Non-Profit Organization was discussed.
We began to pray and discuss if this was the right next step for Faces With Names. During this same time period, at various times and occasions, I believe God put the names of people on my mind as possible board members. Each time, I wrote these individuals names in the note section of my phone, under prospective board members.
Faces With Names is blessed to have such talented and gifted leaders as members of our new Board of Directors.
Once we made the decision to pursue our own 501c3, I began to reach out to the people on my list. In many ways, I could see how God was putting the puzzle pieces together with each new board members gifts and talents. My prayer has been for the exact right people to say yes to becoming a board member for this season.
We have reached a defining moment for, Faces With Names.
I believe we have assembled a leadership team that can help take our ministry efforts to a new level. We not only have the experience and expertise of great business and ministry leaders, we have people who are passionate and have personal experience with Foster Care, Adoption and Global Orphan Care.
Will You Help Us, So Orphans and Vulnerable Children will Know the Love of a Family?
The reality for every organization trying to make a difference in this world is, the reliance on generous people to make their mission and vision possible.
As we have just experienced Christmas Day, where families go to great lengths to spend time together, will you help Faces With Names with our mission and vision, so more orphans and vulnerable children will get to experience the love of a family next Christmas?
It is now my distinct honor and privilege to introduce you to our new Faces With Names, Board of Directors
Cheering You On In Christ,
Eric Mills
