my passion, and by God’s grace and mercy, I believe it is also my calling. I truly believe that we can serve Him by
serving others in every capacity of our lives. From music, to service, to sisterhood, Sigma Alpha Iota has been an awesome
blessing in my life. I couldn’t have asked for better sisters, and I thank God for them everyday.”
