Colette Rizk has been volunteering with Michel Khalil since 2008. In her role with Step Forward, Colette provides critical support on the administration work before the HUB conferences. During the conferences, she handles the day to day support for the participants and monitors the hotel accounts to ensure excellent stewardship.
What Colette enjoys most about being part of the Step Forward ministry, is being among the people who are serving in the frontlines and learning from their experiences. Hearing their amazing testimonies strengthens her faith when she sees God at work through their daily lives and in the ministries that He has called them each to live out.
Serving with Step Forward has not only helped her spiritual life, but also her career. Colette has been working with World Vision International since 1993 as an Administration & Fleet Manager. This involvement has helped her better understand God’s purpose for her life, how privileged we are to work in God’s field, and to know that God uses people like us as His ambassadors to accomplish His work.
Being a part of Step Forward has challenged Colette to grow in every area including leadership. She shared she has learned that leadership that doesn’t involve servanthood is not spiritual leadership. As once we stop serving, we stop walking in Christ’s footsteps of leadership. I support Step Forward Global Ministries because we are called to serve the Lord with the gifts that the Lord has entrusted to us. It is our role to fulfill God’s work on Earth by spreading the Gospel to all nations. As for me, and as part of my current position, it is to manage events on local and international levels. This role has given me wide experience in this field where I enjoy contributing my abilities to supporting the President and the completion of Step Forward’s ministry.
The Step Forward family celebrates Colette’s talents, leadership and extensive experience. We are thankful for the time and faith you have gifted us with!
