Kaufman/Bruening
Presidential:
Hey Ya’ll! My name is Janita Kaufman, and I’m from Chicago, Illinois. Growing up, all of my older siblings did TeenPact, so it’s been wonderful to finally experience it for myself. Last year, during the National Convention elections, I was inspired by the whole process. I got back to my dorm and realized God was nudging me to run for president next year. I talked to my roommate, and she said she’d been thinking about running for vice president. Well, here we are! God has directed me to try something I wouldn't normally do, and I know He’s guiding me step by step. Over the past year, He’s prepared me for the process of running through situations like public speaking classes and state class. He’s also given me a love of people and an ability to lead. Now it’s my turn to trust Him and follow.
Vice Presidential:
Hey Y’all! My name is Ella Bruening, and I’m from Missouri! I have been awestruck with the amazing influence God has had on my life through Teenpact. At my very first state class, I wasn’t expecting much but was exited to where fancy clothes, but by the end of the week I fell in love with TeenPact and truly saw God in every person there. Last year I went to National Convention for the first time. That’s where I met Janita. We were roommates and became fast friends. After seeing the elections and especially the presidential debates we were inspired to run ourselves. I’m very excited to run this year and to see how God grows me through this process! If chosen to be TeenPact’s Vice President I will strive to be a servant-like, confident leader.
