OJHS Facilitator Anita Johnson has been a loyal supporter of Spoken Red for over 5 years. She insisted that someday soon she would like for me to come and speak to the students at her junior high. When I received an email December 2016 from their Guidance Counselor Charles Johnson, I was super excited to accept the appearance. Today, Opelousas Junior High School (OJHS) students had their Career Day for their 8th grade students. I was humbled and honored to speak and interview 40+ children and can honestly salute the school's staff. The young gentlemen truly "took the cake" with their early gentleman approach and business etiquette. I am truly looking forward to working more with the students throughout the school year. Special recognition to all of the other businesses involved in today's event as well.
The first month of the year and truly flown by from Louisiana weather changes to new political officers being sworn in. I am ecstatic to have been chosen to be a board member for the Greater SWLA Black Chamber of Commerce. In addition, I will be serving as the 2016 Banquet Chairman for their annual event scheduled April 15, 2016 at the Cajundome Convention Center. So may I ask you all, "Are you moving forward or remaining stationary?". If you haven't gotten the ball rolling for your success, what are YOU (not anyone else) waiting for? GOD first and everything else follows. There are divine connections, appointments and places all around you. GRASP IT. Until the next blog, be blessed, have faith and love yourself and others!
Spoken Red was chosen as the "Official Photographer" for the 2016 New Orleans Gospel Awards! Check out some of the footage captured during the 3 day event featuring Stellar Award winner Melvin Williams! It was truly a blessing to attend the Living Your Destiny Conference last week in which Pastor John Barton gave one powerful message. His musical guest, Grammy award winner Tasha Cobbs, was truly powerhouse and raised the atmosphere high. I am thankful that I was able to attend once again with my immediate family and church family. Barton quoted, "Faith can only grow in the storms of life."
We are overly thankful for the Robert family becoming the first family to shoot with us in 2016! Such a wonderful shoot indeed! Schedule your session with us today via www.spokenredframes.com
