I want to introduce my family to you. Or at least the family that will be running around the world with me this next year. The following ladies and myself comprise the group, 5 ALIVE! We came up with this name after much discussion about being precious, being living stones for the Lord (2 Peter 2:1-12), being alive, and well, you will see. So, here they are:
This is our beautiful, fantabulous Sara Ellis! She hales from the windy city these days and is ecstatic to be throwing all caution to the wind and racing around the world with the rest of us! From day two of training camp (I didn’t meet her until then because she came in late!!), I knew that the Lord had connected the two of us in His random way of doing things! I am blessed to be traveling the world with this daughter of the King!!
Natalie Montgomery is her name. This beautiful Texan will be our coordinator and our financial guru with her amazing organizational skills! Natalie is seeking after the Lord’s heart with a fervor that is contagious. I am blessed to be traveling the world with this daughter of the King!!
Here is Amy McAllister, our quiet, yet vivacious all-that-the-same- time girl from Atlanta! Amy is a powerful weapon against the enemy as she is a passionate intercessor. It will be sweet to watch this beautiful woman of God stamp on the devil around the world as she prays heaven down! I am blessed to be traveling the world with this daughter of the King!!
And last, but certainly not least, our fearless Colorado leader Ali Page! When I arrived in Atlanta for training camp, Ali’s smile and sweet spirit put me at ease immediately. I’m not sure that this beautiful girl has a frown in her! We, as 5 Alive, are delighted to have Ali Page as our leader, for she has been chosen by Him to lead us this next year! I am blessed to be traveling the world with this daughter of the King!
We began the task of settling on a name by going out of camp and “making a memory.” And boy, did we make a memory!!
After a fun-filled, laughing time at the local thrift store, some hilarious pictures, a few bites of delightful sweets and coffee at the local bakery, a trip back to camp to determine if we needed some foreign language name, we finally decided on 5 ALIVE. A little fruity maybe, but oh so ALIVE in Him!!
Cherry (Ali), Grape (Natalie), Orange (Sara)
Peach (Amy) and Kiwi (Me)
And yes, we bought some of those delightful articles of clothing, so stay tuned for your 5 ALIVE action news beginning in July!!
