Greetings fellow Sisters and Brothers in Christ,
My Ministry Anointed Works –Sandra Dukes is a ministry dedicated in facilitating the discovery and embracing the God-given gifts of creativity , literary, and performing arts. We glorify and celebrate those gifts from which all blessings flow; by praising God- the Father, Jesus-the Son and the Holy Ghost, We appreciate the achievements and attributes of man. We recognize and honor that it is only when the unification of God- given gifts and man-given skills pay tribute to our Lord that we are given God’s authority to possess His promised prosperity.
Someday I hope to own and operate an arts and skills center where children and adults in the community can learn educational skills, performing arts, and receive spiritual motivational skills. This center will be a place where they can learn how to focus on their dreams at any age and to understand what type of education and skills are required to accomplish their goals. Three years ago, a group of artists and I founded a performing group called Anointed Works. The group foundered when I went back to complete my education. Since graduation, I have been trying to re-establish Anointed Works as a group that also functions as a community service organization.
I have discovered that inspiration has neither age nor social boundaries, and can be manifested in either the simplest act of kindness or the greatest accomplishment. It is merely the stimulation of the spirit. Along my journey, my poetry of life has found new meaning, crossing racial, gender and chronological lines.
I have also learned that inspiration is an infinite power. It is the stimulation of the spirit brought forth when one comes to the realization that the things that cause chaos in our lives, but by God and His plan do not define us. We have the choice to live in generational blessings or generational curses. We all have a seed planted deep inside of us—a gift; that seed can only be cultivated and bloom when we share that gift with others
A New Start by Sandra Dukes
“When I was young I wanted fame. Later in life, I wanted fortune. Now that I am older and wiser, I know that true wealth and the mark of respect is the result of fulfillment, of knowing you have made a positive difference. I believe living is a journey like the seasons. Youth is spring; all is new, full of curiosities and wonder. It is a time of nurturing and establishing values. Summer is full of energy, actions and reactions. Fall is the season of solutions and resolutions, the season of reaping what you have sown. Winter is the season when the ground is covered with snow and all around nature seems to be dismal, but underneath the dead foliage of the seasons before, a tiny spark of life is waiting to emerge, waiting for spring—a new start!”. -God Bless and Keep You Sandra Dukes -- " I pray for you ,you pray for me; I need you, I love you. We need each other to survive ( H. Walker L.F.C. )".
