Sali and her husband Scott have been married since 1993 and have two grown children who truly love the Lord and serve Him daily. Sali is a hairstylist of 36 years and owns and operates her own Salon "Shadz & Co" out of their home. Her passion and soul desire is to be the hands and feet of Jesus, wherever the Lord calls her. Her heart is to help combat this crippling disease of sex trafficking and what is known as the fastest-growing crime today. For all who are impacted by this, she is called to share the light of Jesus in every life. "If I can be a part of helping rescue one victim, then I am the one blessed."
And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.

But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life.
- Titus 3:4-7
