Ana

Ana was born in Santiago, Dominican Republic. In 1997, she came to New York, facing the heartbreaking reality of leaving her two oldest children behind. Her journey was not only marked by separation but also by surviving domestic violence. Through every challenge, Ana remained resilient, determined, and committed to building a better life.

Driven by ambition and faith, she pursued the American dream with unwavering strength. In 2005, doors finally opened for her to reunite with her two oldest children, allowing them to share in the life she had worked so hard to build. Today, Ana is a dedicated Medical Assistant with over 20 years of experience in the field.

In 2010, while pregnant with her youngest daughter, Ana began attending her mother’s church and was baptized shortly after her baby was born. Although her attendance was not consistent, her desire to seek the Lord never faded. She visited various churches until 2021, when she was invited to Acclivity Church. There, she found a true spiritual home.

At Acclivity, Ana experienced a profound transformation. She surrendered fully to God, and through His grace, her relationship with her middle daughter was restored. Today, both mother and daughter serve together on the Usher Team, continuing their shared journey of faith and service.
