In honor of Black Philly Pride I wanted to take the opportunity to highlight my folks! The first person I asked was Rev. Da Saint! So after Good Friday we got together to decompress about the Good Friday service she curated and #JesusRepast

She is so intentional about how she represents God and God’s people and how she uses her talent!
