The Founder
Movement Founder, Naomi Johnatty became a believer and ministry servant 25 years ago. She has been a passionate and vocal servant of Jesus, with a heart for children, the marginalized and outcasts and has served God in local and international missions, benevolence, children and youth ministry, administration, prayer and evangelism.
In 2016, God began to work in her life in a new way. Naomi wrote a list of prayers for every aspect of her life and committed to God that if all of her desires were not His plan, she would still serve him and do His will. She also asked Jesus to use her to end oppression in Cayman and to After that God showed her where he was going to work in her and led her into a 40-day fast and began to work in her character. She learned to serve at a new level of humility and obedience, trusting God to be her hope and her only guide through a desert season with much difficulty and testing. She has seen his incredible faithfulness and discipline. Naomi testifies of Jesus’ transformation and deliverance that many years of prayer, obedience and trusting God has done in her life, and uses this to encourage Caymanians to believe in the power of God to make us new and redeem all things.
Naomi asked Jesus to give her a calling to the Caymanian people group and passionately pursues a mission to share God's love and redemption with Caymanians primarily. It is her passion to see the community of the Cayman Islands transformed, and invites citizens and residents to refine their calling and ask for a people group that Jesus can refine them for.
She believes come together to make a difference in our islands.
