Vice President, Jan Oals

Jan Oals wears many hats; wife, mother, grandmother, avid gardener, fabulous cook, canner, baker, Administrative Assistant and Vice President (and good friend). When Carol resigned from the board, Jan obeyed God to fill the vacancy with her strong administrative talents and skill. Jan lives with an open hand and an open heart, loves her Lord, her family, and friends, deeply and warmly. Ask her about her beautiful lilies (the ones she hybridized herself). Maybe you will get to see a picture of them and hear a story about how beautiful God is in all His creation. You will feel loved and welcomed around Jan because she also has a gift of hospitality that she freely uses to teach THE LOST ARTS OF THE HOME.

Secretary, Mary Smoot
Mary Smoot is a wife and a mother of three children. She is dedicated to her extended family and is a loyal friend. Mary is a magnificent writer, (check out her blog here) and the other half of MS2 Photography. Brilliant and animated, Mary brings  a breath of fresh air to our meetings. We all eagerly anticipate a novel by Mary someday. (hint, hint)...In the meantime, her blog keeps us entertained and her notes from our meetings keep us reminded of the work we do together.  

Carol Chandler (not pictured)

Carol has worked with Lesa from the very first day of SOZO Clean & God's Girls Ministry's conception. She obeyed the Lord to help in any capacity as was needed. In the beginning, this included logo design, web site development and marketing materials including phone book ad design, and all the desktop publishing needed for all conferences including GOD, Women & Chocolate. Carol served as the first vice president and because of her dedicated service,  Carol has been designated a lifetime honorary board member. Now Carol helps people get & stay well naturally. Check out her website here.

 

President, Lesa Ankney

Lesa Ankney has been faithful to follow God's lead and obey Him. She left a great job at Christopher Newport University to devote more of her time and energy into God's Girls Ministry,  run her award winning eco-friendly business (SOZO Clean), and open  a marketplace ministry, The Circuit, (a free wi-fi cafe), which is open to the public and run by volunteers.

God's Girls Ministry was birthed to offer a safe place for women to be real, get answers and receive help for lasting change. "My experience can only help you so far," she said. "Look to Jesus; he can take you all the way."
