My connection to the movement
I’m Joell, a wife, mom, worship leader, and longtime ministry leader with a heart for people in difficult seasons. I spent more than a decade working in the medical field before stepping away to focus on my family. I’ve witnessed how powerful it is when someone sees a person’s need and steps into their story with compassion.
I’ve known Sharon through ministry for many years, and what she and Christian have walked through has touched me deeply. Watching her endure tremendous loss while continuing to fight for Christian made it impossible for me to stand on the sidelines. I desire to use my voice to help others see this little boy's need, understand the urgency of his story, and help Sharon as she fights to give Christian the chance he deserves. Duke White has blessed us by opening up this movement to help fund Christian's needs.
