Judi had a vision to create a quarterly magazine that highlighted the activities of the ministry and it was originally entitled MMOC Notations. After giving the vision wings she was lead to pass the project on to Trustee Cynthia Hood It is now known as “MMOC on the Horizons” and is going to new heights. Another ministry vision that was laid on her heart was given birth to in Oct 2009 when Precious Daughters had its inaugural meeting. This is a program for young women based on scriptural education and skills for surviving in today’s world while maintaining Christian values. It also has a component for girls less than 10 years of age lovingly named Rubies who will be mentored by the Precious Daughters (age 10-18). The program is based on education, fellowship, and community service. Each year the young ladies will choose a community service project to complete with the assistance of the adult mentors.
