Never underestimate your dreams and visions. Your trials might become your testimony. Our daughter Shauna was getting married and we wanted to give her and her “king” their dream wedding with very little money to accomplish the goal. Watching The Wedding Channel, having family medical issues, and with a mustard seed of faith, we persevered. A company made us an offer to do lighting for their wedding. To see their faces light up when they walked into the room as they saw the room transformed into arrays of purple with their monogramed names on the floor was what made me realize that THIS IS IT! I asked my husband, Preston, if we could start our own lighting business. We had no knowledge of lighting whatsoever. Nevertheless, he said YES. We shared the vision with our son Preston, Jr., who was in his fork in the road. And the rest is history. What started as a small vision turned into an endless opportunity. God showed His favor. It’s a new beginning and it’s our time. Stop by and LIKE our Facebook page Light It Up With Triple A. Refer a friend please. Call 410-263-9278 or e-mail LightItUpWithTripleA@gmail.com.

Prodigal Son by definition K.G. Butler, Sr.
As a young teen (16), there were 2 neighborhood businessmen, Buck and Ouchie Pindell, who taught me how to use a paint brush and roller…during a few short summers. Later, after 3 years of military (U.S. Army), Honorable Discharge, for me, finding work was hard. … I went to prison, and after my initial incarceration of 5 years, my prison record left me without hope of future employment. … But with the help of a drug court case manager, Mrs. N.J. Bass, and a God-inspired will to live a purpose-filled life, family, church, and community, I decided to start my own business: Prodigal Son Home Improvement. Using the skills I was taught at a young age, I went from neighbor to neighbor for work—painting, hauling trash, mowing lawns…Now I am supporting my family, church, and community. I like being my own boss.

Marvin Charles, Jr., Certified Personal Trainer
I started my business, One Day at a Time, because working out is something that I love and it is a way for me to help others reach their goal of being physically fit. I started working out consistently in the summer of 2001 because I wanted to become stronger and faster while I was playing college football. Initially, I was not a big fan of training my body, but once I started on a regimen routine, I started to love it, and I developed a passion for it. And I began to see results. So I decided to sit for the personal trainer exam and to get certified so that I could help others achieve their goals, just like me. This also gave me an opportunity to earn extra income, especially since there has been a market for getting healthy and fit particularly over the past 10 years. I also believe that owning your own business is a pathway to financial freedom. With the current state of the economy, if you can find something that you are good at, and you are able to create a market for your talents, then you should put it to work in a way that can possibly lead to financial independence in the future. 410-266-6857
