Scovia Rushing Books

The final GMM with (Lori Evans) & (Sarah Locke) was nothing short of historic last night!

JLM Presidents from 1989 to 2026-2028 gathered together - leadership, service, and sisterhood in one place! After two years of steadfast leadership, President Lori’s theme, “Remember Your Why,” was felt in every corner of the room. Thank you to Lori and VP Sarah Locke for years of grace, vision, and calling us back to our why.

It was an honor to also meet the 2024-2025 President (Courtney Dickey) who poured into me the wisdom of keeping passion, sacrifice, and vision at the heart of our service. To every woman who has led this League: your legacy lives on in Memphis. Past. Present. Future. This is JLM! ❤️

and John Martin Barger, thank you for having speak to your wonderful residents today! Your enthusiasm and energy were contagious, and I’m so grateful to have had the chance to connect with all of you.

During our time together, I was reminded of the importance of self-love, trusting in God’s timing, and living a life of service to others. May we all strive to cultivate these values in our own lives, and may they guide us towards a path of purpose, peace, and fulfillment. To God be the glory! ✨

What an honor it was for to be invited to Inaugural Multicultural Festival yesterday! It was a joy witnessing everyone cherish, celebrate, and share their cultures.

It was a packed house full of different culinary traditions, music, dance, and storytelling. These things transported us to different parts of the world, evoked emotions, and created meaningful connections. What a blessing!

Thank you to the committee; Mrs. Vrooman, Mrs. McIntire, Mrs. Cassandra Johnson, Mrs. Hagood, Mrs. Swanner, Mrs. Pillow, and Mrs. Anderson, for reminding us that our cultures are the threads that weave our humanity together. I’m grateful! ✨
