Our team would like to shine a light on this very special young lady Ms. Sandra.
Sandra provides exceptional care to our clients, always going the extra mile to be be sure they feel supported, valued, and nourished never leaving without serving up a warm meal.
Having her on our team is a bonus. She brings not only style, but wisdom, compassion, and grace to everything she does.
Thank you, Sandra, for representing our organization with excellence just as we knew you would. We appreciate you more than words can express.
A proud native of Henderson, NC, Sandra Hargrove Rice is a 55-year-old woman whose life reflects strength, faith, and resilience. An early retiree and widow of seven years, she is a loving mother of four and a proud grandmother of four who finds joy in baking, fellowshipping with family and friends, and caring for others.
Sandra answered her calling into ministry in September 2020 and now walks boldly in her purpose as Minister Sandra Rice. Her journey has not been without challenges, yet she stands as a powerful testimony that you don’t always look like what you’ve been through.
Living with Ankylosing Spondylitis, a rare bone disease, Sandra continues to declare healing, strength, and renewal over her life. One of her greatest tests came on March 18, 2020, with the sudden loss of her husband of 21 years. In the face of such heartbreak, she chose faith over despair refusing to remain in sorrow and instead rising to fulfill God’s purpose for her life.
Sandra’s message is clear: there is Life After Death. Her journey began with acceptance embracing her truth, acknowledging her pain, and allowing it to transform her into a woman of peace, joy, and purpose.
Her life now reflects self-love, self-care, and self-worth, all while continuing to pour into others and serve faithfully. Minister Sandra Rice is a true example of grace in action and strength in faith.
We honor you, Sandra, for your courage, your heart, and the way you love God and your community.
