One Hallelujah

A few years ago, I started developing the idea that perhaps everyone is given at least one gift – “One Hallelujah”, if you will. A purpose for which they were uniquely designed. I came to believe that if we were all given this gift, the implied contract is that we will all use it. These gifts would then be a chorus of Hallelujah to God. This organization is the embodiment of my Hallelujah. Our hope is that it will play an active roll through its programs to inspire others to both find and develop theirs.
