Women History Month – Honoring Janelle Ali

Title: Assistant Director of Admissions

‍Bio: I was born in the East Caribbean Island of St. Vincent & the Grenadines and grew up in Union, New Jersey. I was baptized at the age of 15 and was one of a few to lead the teen ministry, then further progressed to being a leader in the Campus ministry.  At the age of 20 I was dealing with some personal issues and I decided to leave the church, but I knew God never gave up on me. I realized that being in the world had no fulfillment and was not God’s plan for my life. I then made a profound decision to recommit my life to the Lord.

Not only is it a source of financial income but, it gives me great joy to know that I am working in an environment with other Christians. In addition, I am given an opportunity to serve and give back to our students.
