Ayana Elon, 32, was born in Shreveport, LA and raised in Monroe, LA by her mother. The oldest of four children, she had to take on responsibility earlier than most by helping to raise her siblings in a single-parent household.
Although faced with many challenges growing up, she was always in search of ways to assist others. She wanted to be the light that shined over the world. That was her dream. However, that dream faded once relationships and children came into view.
In 2003, she started receiving visions for her ministry. At first, Ayana was reluctant to move on faith to make that vision a reality because her mind was filled with doubt. She constantly doubted that God really wanted to use her because of her past that was filled with sin. She asked God the question "Why me?" until she started to ask the question "Why not me?".
After clearing out the things and people that were hindering her from moving towards her destiny, Ayana was able to focus on bringing her dreams back into clear view.
With guidance, she has created ministries she desires to continue focusing on. The ministries, dealing with issues such as abortion education, homelessness, youth guidance, and life challenges, are very important to her because they are all issues she can readily relate to.
In everything she does, she proclaims that it is only through God she is able to continue to push through obstacles and trying times. Through the works of the ministries, God is continuously glorified. He has provided everything she needs in order to present a Christ-centered ministry to the world.
She understands how important it is for her to know what her purpose is in life. Knowing this, she can clearly focus on the things God has placed inside her. She will gladly tell anyone if they desire to know why she does what she does. With a smile and confidence, she will say that Her Father sent her out into the world to do great works in His name.
Standing firm in her beliefs, Ayana holds the ministry on the key scripture Matthew 7:7.
