ABOUT
WHy be blessed
Be Blessed messages were created for the purpose of inspiring, teaching, encouraging, and connecting with all people, no matter where they are in their lives. God has given me these words so that I may share them with you, with the hope that you will get to know Him better and understand how much He loves you.
how it started
My husband encouraged me to apply for an on-air news job at a television station that I wasn’t qualified for and didn’t want. But I felt led to go through the process anyway because I felt a push from God. As hesitant as I was, I sent in some Christian videos I had created a couple of years earlier, as part of my on-camera demo reel.
When I met with the station management, we all quickly realized that this news position was not right for me at all. However, the General Manager of the stations shared with me that he had been thinking about producing inspirational faith based videos for our community, and airing them on the television stations. But he said he had yet to find the person who would be right speaking these messages on camera.
We collaborated and created “Be Blessed with Cami” and these segments began airing on television in June 2018.
God has orchestrated every step of this process and He continues to work His purpose into expanding Be Blessed with Cami.
