As Guide and Adelante Secretary, Rita endeavors to support the mission of forming young adults into leaders for the Kingship of Christ, especially in concerns to the ladies and their role of true femininity.
Eric Vanzant
Eric is an unabashedly proud and blessed resident of the great state of Kentucky, one of the few remaining bulwarks to truthfully claim the title "Land of the Free," where God walks frequently among the hills and hollers and paints the sky over the valley more evenings than not, where the folks are real and the deer, turkey, and coons are "thicker 'n fleas on a hound." He owns a small residential remodeling business, and enjoys keeping up with a small homestead which includes chickens, pigs, a garden, a dog, and a cat (and occasional stray democrats, though they don't last long). Eric is a junior guide and treasurer for the Adelante program.
