Meet Our Branch President
Rev. Dr. Saharra L. Bledsoe is the proud daughter of the late Rev. Dr. James W. and Fannie Bledsoe.
Throughout her life, Rev. Dr. Saharra L. Bledsoe has had the honor and privilege of meeting, studying, marching, and serving under and with many courageous people who helped shape and mold her into the woman and leader she is today. She also has a great sense of humor.
Rev. Bledsoe is a called and gifted child of God who has been blessed with the talents of public speaking, acting, writing, planning, and problem-solving.
Rev. Bledsoe was raised to:
1. Trust in the Lord.
2. A smile may seem like nothing to you but may mean everything to someone else.
3. Payer changes things,
4. When you do anything, do it to the best of your ability.
5. Serving and being of service to others begins with you being able to give of yourself unselfishly.
Humility isn't a goal; it's a way of life.
Rev. Bledsoe has learned how God can and never lets you forget how he moves and works to provide and lift you through all things.
Faith isn’t just what you make of it. It’s what can make you!
"Each and Every Day, I thank God for allowing you and me to have victory.
