Come on in and Meet the Girlz

Worked intimately in her community for more than 40 years. Her professional, civic, and religious affiliations and experiences have all fostered a deep passion for those not as fortunate as most. Professionally, Lillian has more than 25 years of experience as a Hospitality and Technology professional. Most of her experience was acquired from her employment with global industry leaders. Her roles included Transient and Group Sales, Computer Programming, Group Housing, Revenue Management, and Human Resources. Each position offered great opportunities to develop as a relationship specialist and troubleshooter. For her efforts as the Program Coordinator of Marriott International’s Community Employment and Training Program, Lillian was awarded a proclamation as an Outstanding Georgia Citizen and was enrolled into the Goodwill Ambassador Corps for the State of Georgia.

Spiritual development has always been important to Lillian. She joined Holsey Temple Christian Methodist Episcopal Church, Atlanta, Georgia, at the early age of eight and served faithfully for 32 years. Lillian honors this relationship for it was here that she first learned the importance of loving God and His people. It was Holsey Temple where she was afforded numerous opportunities to develop and serve in leadership capacities.

In May of 1999, the Lord directed Lillian to Total Grace Christian Center; a worship center, training center and family center where she humbly served in the Personal Workers, Levitical, Drama, Women’s Shelter Ministries, Missions and Evangelism-Street Team, and Training and Development Ministries. Her involvement with Total Grace was pivotal in her spiritual and personal development.

Today, Lillian “Gigi” Johnson serves as the Program Manager for The House of Cherith; a trauma-informed care residential recovery program. Lillian brings a wealth of professional, volunteer, and Christian experience into her role as she serves survivors of sex trafficking, sex exploitation and women coming out of the sex entertainment industry. She serves the residents and staff humbly. She trusts God has allowed her experiences for such a time as this to develop and administer programs that will empower His people.
