Nevaeh is involved in evangelism, helping with young children, and the Winter Retreat at her church, and she’ll soon be participating in praise dancing. She enjoys inviting other teens to church.
In her spare time, she loves dancing, hanging out with family, reading, being outside, taking pictures, doodling, smiling, and laughing.
After graduation from Wisconsin Lutheran High School, Nevaeh is planning to attend college to become an athletic trainer.
Nevaeh characterizes gratitude in Christian leadership as looking inside your heart, appreciating the things not very many people have, remembering the grace we receive each day from our wonderful Father, and smiling when it’s hard. In her words, “Why should we fear when we know our protector?”
