"First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people." 1 Timothy 2:1

Aundria Price is a retired Registered Nurse who lives with her husband, Earl, in West Monroe, LA. Aundria and Earl were married in 1970 and have two sons and one granddaughter. They attend Mt. Vernon Baptist Church together. Aundria worked as an operating room nurse for many years and also taught nursing at the University of Louisiana at Monroe. She is a passionate worshipper of the Lord Jesus, has a heart for Israel, and loves to study the Word of God.

Aundria has served as Intercessor for Grace Place Ministries and for Rhonda Grace personally since 2001. Only eternity will tell of the fruit of her intercession. Countless times she has prayed during ministry sessions for breakthroughs to come, in times of decision making for wisdom to be released, and in times of financial need for the windows of Heaven to pour out the provision. Her gift of discernment and tenacity of spirit are powerful tools given by the Lord. She is a living testimony of James 5:16, "The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much."

Most times, the sacrifices of the behind-the-scene prayer warriors go unnoticed. May God bless and honor Aundria publicly for her faithful service given unto Him and His Body in the private chambers of her prayer closet.

"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God." 2 Corinthians 1:3,4

Ann Webster is the mother of 4 children and grandmother of 11 grandchildren. She moved to Monroe in 2011 and met Grace Place Directors, Charles and Pat Evan, shortly thereafter when she became employed as personal care assistant for their autistic grandson, Morgan. She came to Grace Place at the Evans' invitation initially, but was instructed by the Holy Spirit that this was the place where she needed to volunteer her time. Soon after, as her gifting, heart, and dedication became evident, she was asked by Grace Place Founder/CEO Rhonda Grace to accept the position of Director of The Clothes Closet. She went to work immediately reorganizing and revamping the donations area and store so that it would run more efficiently and bless those who shop there.

Ann is a ten year breast cancer and congestive heart failure survivor. She believes that God saved her life to prepare her for the journey she is on now. She is excited to be a part of what God is doing at Grace Place. Her joyful enthusiasm and heart for the people are contagious and inspirational.

"Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen." Ephesians 3:20

When she started volunteering at Grace Place, she felt like God had her there for a purpose. "When God calls, step out!" Her passion is to serve and "plant" into other's lives for the Glory of God. "We're called to be a light in this world, so let's shine bright!"

“Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.” 1 Peter 4:8-10

Misty has been married to her husband, Bert, for 25 years and they have raised 4 children: Jacob, Adam, and Mallory are all presently attending college, and their youngest, Gracie, is in the 6th grade at Northeast Baptist School. Misty was born and raised in Monroe, and graduated from Louisiana Tech in Accounting. She has worked in public accounting, but has primarily been a stay-at-home mom.

Misty began volunteering at Grace Place with Our Lady of Fatima Church in 2015, but felt the calling to serve more, and was able to commit full-time in August 2017.

Misty’s favorite part of Grace Place is the people, and the opportunity you are given to brighten their day with a smile, calling them by name, listening to their story, or praying with them. You can feel the presence of the Holy Spirit beyond description at Grace Place, and while there, she is often reminded of two beautiful quotes by Mother Teresa: “If you judge people, you have no time to love them” , and “Not all of us can do great things, but we can do small things with great love”.
