Trees need strong support from its roots, trunk, and branches to bear much fruit and to withstand fierce weather systems. Similarly, we too need a support system of family, friends, and colleagues, to grow and strengthen in roles and resources God has given us. The Perspective group will discuss how to build and strengthen a healthy support system to love and serve God effectively, as He has chosen us. The group, consisting of Christian young adult professionals, will meet on Monday July 15th in Frisco for networking and community. Please contact Beulah at mirrorangles@gmail.com for further details.
Perspective Meeting in Frisco Monday July 15

Ken Leaman
Ken Leaman has a passion for students, and for over 30 years has been volunteering within churches and other ministries, leading and mentoring students. These churches are:
- Stonebriar Community Church in Frisco, TX where Chuck Swindoll is the senior pastor
- First Church of God in Hanover, PA
Ken works for Amazon Web Services as a Support Operations Manager. Ken has also served on the boards of other non-profits like the DFW Technology Prayer Breakfast, and the DFW Help Desk Institute.
Ken, and his wife Karen, have been married for 31 years, and have a 30 year old son. They live in Allen, TX, just North of Dallas.
As Ken and Karen repeatedly witnessed many Christian students who were active within the Church walk away from their faith shortly after graduating high school, they grew frustrated. Studies show that about 70% of young adults leave their faith after graduation, which is a huge issue since they are the future of the Church. After much prayer and searching God's direction for many years, the Leaman's felt His calling to start a ministry to address this problem. In 2014, they gathered like minded Christian professionals to help begin Young Adults of Worth Ministries. We believe that this ministry is from God, and it will be blessed by Him for His glory alone.
