FREEDOM LA'APUI WAS A YOUNGLIVES MOM AND NOW IS PART OF THE "RISE" PROGRAM IN FAIRBANKS. SHE LOVES JESUS AND IS GROWING IN HER FAITH AND IN SERVANT LEADERSHIP. FREEDOM WANTS TO BE A YOUNGLIVES MENTOR ONE DAY.

RECENTLY, FREEDOM SELF PUBLISHED A CHILDREN'S BOOK SHE WROTE, "GLITTER, AND THE JOURNEY TO THE SUN." SHE INTENTIONALLY WROTE THIS BOOK TO SHARE THE GOSPEL WITH KIDS WHO STRUGGLE WITH ANXIETY. THIS YEAR, AT OUR ANNUAL YOUNGLIVES PRINCESS TEA PARTY, WE READ HER BOOK TO THE 28 CHILDREN AND ADULTS DURING STORYTIME! FREEDOM HAS BEEN A STRONG LEADER AND ADVOCATE, HELPING WITH FUNDRAISERS AND MAJOR EVENTS. THIS YEAR, SHE INTENTIONALLY STEPPED ASIDE TO ALLOW ANOTHER MOM TO SERVE AT CAMP FOR THE FIRST TIME. WE ARE EXCITED TO SEE HOW GOD CONTINUES TO STEP INTO HER CALLING WHILE MINISTERING TO YOUNGLIVES MOMS IN FAIRBANKS!
