BACKGROUND

Very simply, this "dream" was developed out of a deep desire to use the creative gifts that God has given me, both physical and spiritual, to further His kingdom. As a professional interior designer and a mother of two, God began to show me that the creative talents I have are gifts from Him, and that they can be used to change people's lives. Through extensive prayer, God has led me to turn this dream into a reality by forming a non-profit organization - Kingdom Design Ministries.
The main goal of this ministry is to uplift the name of Jesus Christ. The "room makeovers" are simply the platform that allows us to bring the spirit of God into people's homes. This opportunity offers more than just a pretty new room for the receiving family. Through this service we bring families closer together in Christ, they receive hope. We strive to help the individual child realize that they are valuable in God's eyes. To assure them that despite their circumstances, He has a purpose, a plan for their lives. They can make a difference in the world because "all things are possible to him that believes" Mark 9:23
Most of all, if anyone in the family has never accepted Jesus Christ as their personal savior, we pray that this ministry will open the door to that opportunity. Our job is to be obedient to the call God has placed on our lives...then, leave the results up to Him!
In Christ,
Missy Johnson

Fall is in the air!

From the changing colors of the leaves, to pumpkins and hay bales - you see it all around! I love this time of year...the season change always brings a longing for change in my own life - a time of reflection, anticipation, a longing for what's just around the corner...the holidays!

Next month, KDM is hosting a fundraiser at Sullivans in downtown Maryville. We will be auctioning off small Christmas trees designed and decorated by area artists and designers - who have generously given their time and talents - to bring a night of festivities! Ornaments, design services, and much more have been donated for auction/purchase - with all proceeds going to Kingdom Design Ministries! If you are interested in attending, tickets are $12.00 and can be paid through the Blount County Chamber of Commerce. Payment will reserve your spot! Space is limited. Please email me at kdmservants@yahoo.com for more information. Happy Friday and God bless!
