iGnite IS our members! They make us what we are, which is why we LOVE spotlighting them! This week, we invite you to meet At Home Member, Kendall Marquardt! Kendall is one of our many COVID blessings, as she began consistently iGniting with us during COVID...and now we see her 3-4 times each week! One of the many things we love about Kendall is her kind and encouraging spirit...and to see how she has fully embraced the roll of being a step mom. She is phenomenal!

What do you love most about iGnite?
I get to workout with my mom! It sets my whole day and week in the right direction. Seeing Mom is the best because with phone calls our schedules don't always connect. My 3 step kids take a lot of time and getting to see Mom several times a week makes me very happy.
