Belinda Morrison, Parent, Carrollton Baptist Church

Alyssa Avant is the most energetic, organized ball of fire I have ever had the privilege of working with. She is a wonderful, devoted Christian young woman who loves the Lord and strives to do his will.

As a committed youth and children’s minister at our church, Alyssa is constantly finding ways of keeping the kids occupied with activities that are always fun. She has a full plate, managing to direct VBS, youth Bible study, youth Sunday school, children’s choir, SOK, (Summer Outing for Kids) and scheduling activities for both the youth and children on a monthly basis. On top of that, she attends seminary and is a busy wife and mother of a two-year-old.

My children, ages 9 and 16 think the world of her. And my teen knows that if he has a problem that he can talk it out with Alyssa. She has a heart for the children of our church and the community at large.
