Every year, I pray for a 'Dream Speaker'—someone uniquely equipped to help us execute the specific assignment for this season. It is always an honor when a visionary says 'yes' to this call.
This year is particularly special. While this speaker happens to be my cousin, he wasn't chosen for our history, but for his proven expertise. He is a master of his craft, highly qualified to lead us through this transformation, and I am honored he accepted the assignment
The "Yes" that confirms everything. 🕊️
I don’t take the title "Dream Speaker" lightly. It’s a seat reserved for the person I believe will truly move the needle for our community. When they say yes, I know we are on the right track.
This year, the assignment led me home.
I’m so proud to announce that Douglas Thames Jr. is our featured speaker. Beyond our family bond, I have watched him lead organizations and transform lives with such excellence. He is more than qualified to deliver the breakthrough we’ve been praying for.
I’m honored to have his expertise at the table. Help me welcome this year’s Dream Speaker!
