Keisha Polonio
They Gave Me a Home to
Thrive as a Leader
I was one of the original 50
people who started the Underground, praying, dreaming
and hoping for a new kind
of church for our city. Today,
Im a governing elderworking with our staff and elders
to pray and discern together
what the Lord is saying to our
movement and to us. Being
part of a leadership team that
values partnership is a gift.
The Underground is a special place for me because Im
wanted here. It has strengthened my walk with Jesus by
challenging me to lead and
make disciples when I felt inadequate. My voice, my passions, my gifts, my blackness,
my Belizean culture are celebrated. I reflect the image of
Jesus and they see that and
[they] have given me a home
to thrive as a leader in the
church and a follower of Jesus.
Keisha Polonio,
governing elder
