Legacy in Bloom 2026🌺

We love to see the overflow of Thanksgiving, Beauty, Wisdom, Joy, Sisterhood in Christ! What a gift this day was.

Thank you, Leading Lady Amaris, for birthing a vision that gathered women across generations to reflect, laugh, heal, remember, and hope again. Your yes created space for something sacred.

To our amazing G.L.O.W. Steering Committee, thank you for serving with excellence, care, and love. Every thoughtful detail helped this experience bloom beautifully.

G.L.O.W sisters, guests and friends…this is only the beginning. We will carry the stories and continue the legacy, together. 🌸

Pentecost at Friendship Christian Church, 5.24.26
This is the day the church came ALIVE!
Surely, the fire did fall 🔥

We embrace the power of the Holy Ghost 50 days after Resurrection Sunday!

The Word reminded us that The Who came before us laid a foundation….. but we have foundation and power to live!
“We have what they had, but better!”
Pastor Justin Ross-Hillard😮‍💨🙌🏾

What a time in worship, praise, and the Word!

We believe the Word and rejoice in the events of Acts 2:

“When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.”
‭‭Acts‬ ‭2‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Just a glimpse of Legacy in Bloom 2026💐💐

Today the ladies gathered in a beautiful reminder that legacy does not just live in stories we tell. It lives in the women who carry them.

In each frame are treasured photos, handwritten scripture cards, and reminders of how loved each lady has always been!

What a gift to witness faith, sisterhood, memory, and joy all in one room😍

Bloom, sis. The legacy lives on. 🌸
