Hi Chantelle,
You are definitely my pick. I have thought of you often this week and the awesome opportunity you have before you. I can’t think of better platform for reaching your dreams.
I had my Ladies join me in praying for you yesterday and this morning at 6:30 AM the Canton Prayer Group was praying for you. Hope you were still asleep…we had you covered.
May God work everything for your good as He has promised. I believe you are created for such a time as this. A time when so much news is bad there is a light shining in you bringing a beatiful glow from the inside out. Our land needs that light to shine forth boldly. Go get your crown!
God Bless you,
Momma Foster

Chantelle - I am so proud of you! Your dedication to what God has called you to do is admirable. The platform from which you speak will give Him the Glory. Do your best. Leave the rest to Him. He has a plan - to give you a hope and a future! You are making a difference here and now. Love, Aunt Diane

CHANTELLE,
dissappointed for you but definitely not disappointed in you. Actually, I couldn’t be more proud that Joel picked you as the winner.
