Absolutely. Acknowledging the leadership that created the environment where MJ could grow makes the story even stronger. Here's a revised version that naturally honors everyone involved.
Before the writing, one thought: your story isn't just about your son—it's about what happens when **leadership creates opportunities, mentors invest in children, and parents remain faithful.** That's a message people will remember.
There are moments in life when you stop and realize... God has been writing the story all along.
Today, my heart is overflowing with gratitude.
When my son, MJ, was just **6 years old**, he received his very first media training at **Kingdom Cathedral**. Looking back now, I can clearly see that God was preparing him for a purpose far greater than any of us could have imagined.
I want to sincerely thank **Apostle Michael J. Rogers** for his leadership and for fostering a ministry where young people were encouraged to discover and develop their gifts. Thank you for creating an environment where seeds of purpose could be planted and nurtured.
A special thank you to **Deacon Malcolm O'Sullivan** and **Deacon Harrell**, who didn't just see a little boy—they saw potential. They welcomed him, mentored him, and patiently poured into him for nearly six years. Their investment helped shape skills that are still producing fruit today.
Fast forward to today...
That little boy behind the camera has become the man behind my brand. Today, MJ serves as my videographer, helping me bring the vision of **Leverage Ops Powered by AI** and our family businesses to life.
Before his father went home to be with the Lord, he encouraged MJ to stand beside me, learn our businesses, and help carry the vision. Watching my son faithfully honor those words has been one of the greatest blessings of my life.
As his mother, my heart is full.
As a business owner, I'm grateful for his dedication.
As a woman of faith, all I can say is...
**Look at God.**
To every pastor, ministry leader, mentor, teacher, coach, and parent who chooses to invest in the next generation—thank you. You may never know how far your encouragement will reach or whose future you're helping to shape.
This is what legacy looks like.
This is what generational purpose looks like.
This is what happens when faith, leadership, mentorship, and family come together.
I am honored—truly honored—to be MJ's mommy.
Thank You, Lord, for allowing me to witness Your promises unfold before my eyes.
