Empowerment Vitamin~ Upgrade Yourself!(best viewed in IE)
We all have a purpose for being on this Earth and on June 26, 1975 April Mason arrived on the scene to begin her part. There was no question she was special, gifted and not a carbon copy of anyone. Although April was raised going to church and had many things working in her favor, her life would take a few twists and turns that on the surface looked like they would stop her destiny; but in fact have helped develop her into the Woman of Wonders she is today!
April is a dynamic and powerful speaker inspiring audiences around the country to overcome any obstacle, and with God they can achieve the impossible. Her unshakeable, unwavering and rock solid faith has brought her from living in a shelter to the successful business woman she is today.
April is the author of 3 "how to" books "April Mason's Choose to Prosper " How to Establish Your Business Without Using Personal Credit" Business Edition and Ministry Edition and "How to Start a Gift Basket Business. April is also an ordained evangelist who uses her personal testimony to demonstrate to others how they can turn their struggle into strength. She has traveled through unbelievable hardships including abuse, only to emerge more confident in her God to keep His Word. Her message of the mighty power of God to turnaround any circumstance in our lives lifts the hearts of those in her audience to reach up and achieve the impossible!
Becoming a single parent to a beautiful daughter at the age of 18, April realized she would have to work hard to accomplish her goals. By age 23 April was raising three children by herself and worked long hours in Corporate America as a commercial credit specialist to provide for her family.
This career cost her precious quality time with her little ones. Despite setbacks and negative comments about her being a single parent, April knew there was more she and God wanted from her life.
In December of 2000 April prayed to God for direction and he inspired her to begin a Gift Basket business. Initially she was excited but self- doubt caused her to hesitate for three months. Easter 2001 would prove to be a resurrection of sorts for April in more ways than one as she launched her home based Gift Basket business staring with the three Easter baskets she designed for her children.
In 2002 April made a resolution to totally surrender her life to God and leave poverty, lack and self-doubt behind. This resolution would be the catalyst used to reveal part of her destiny. As a survivor of molestation, rape, domestic violence April understand that what she went through was not for her.
April is assigned to minister to those who find themselves in the same places she was. She has a call to those who have been molested, abused, low self-esteem, no self worth, single parents and have been misguided and unloved.
April was later directed to relocate to Atlanta, GA. Although she knew nothing about or no one in Georgia, she did know that since she was following God's lead she and her family would be fine and there was a plan unfolding. She left with $300 and arrived with $50 but there was a beautiful home waiting for her and her children, which was confirmation that she heard correctly.
*Some of the events that affected her life are:
Being molested from the age of 5-17
Being physically abused to the point that her face could not be recognized
Becoming a mother to 3 beautiful children by the time she was 23
Being raped
Living in a shelter
Living in a transitional house
Turning adversity into success, she has:
