This is brought to you by our St John Association Home Mission as a community activity and we are especially glad to serve the Austin area. I was  diagnosed with breast cancer in January 2019. This was the best thing that could have happened in my life. I am so much closer to God and truly trust His plan. Whether He heals me on this side or the next, I TRUST HIM. I continue to bless His name throughout this ordeal...even in my pain, sadness, soreness, fatigure. He gets all of the glory. He continues to sustain me - even now. When he gave me “Beyond the Masquerade” - I didn’t realize it was for ME. I knew I loved Christ and served God.. but I “chose” what I was transparent about. But God showed me that I needed to be EXPOSED and allow people to see Him through me. This has just given me a newer level and relationship with Him that I’ve never experienced before. I am better for it and better equipped to run this race and let my light shine so that others will see Him and glorify our Father.                                                                    **************************  Lady Madelyn is the Founder of the Aspire Higher and the co-Founder of The Sisterfriends, which focus on youth personal development, self esteem and personal accountability.
