Meet The Team

Born in Trinidad, raised and educated in Boston, then relocated to Florida.  Jennifer Harrell discovered early on her passion for helping others find their purpose. She then pursued a career in real estate and mortgages where she honed her leadership and communication skills into Anointed Bags Ministries (ABM). As a certified Christian Life Coach, Jennifer blends faith, strategy, and heartfelt encouragement to deliver programs—from back-to-school giveaways to workshops on financial literacy and etiquette—that uplift underserved youth and families across Northeast Florida.

Under her guidance, ABM has provided thousands of care packages, school supplies, and community events like the annual “A Cup of Grace” tea party. Jennifer co-hosts a monthly Bible Talk with her husband Franklin.  They both also go into the mission field each year to tell the Good News of Jesus.  She leverages storytelling, social media, and partnerships with local businesses to inspire volunteers and secure resources.

Always driven by a desire to help people live more purposeful, empowered lives, Jennifer continues to expand ABM’s reach “one bag at a time.”
