Real Experiences

LivOn Journey Camp

LivOn Journey Camp is where survivors come together to experience the path of survivorship.

Larry M.

This has been one of the most encouraging experiences I have ever been a part of. I struggled in saying yes to participating in it. However, the experience has had such a positive impact on my life. It has opened my mind and heart to so many possibilities in dealing with life challenges. The team was excellent. The topics and presentations were tremendous.

Zakia L.

It was AMAZING! I honestly believe this is needed. There is a huge emotional burden that can come with survivorship and it’s great to have people to have you readjust to life and find your way back to joy. Having peace of mind is needed during every part of this journey.

As a one-time survivor on the path to my second victory this Journey (Camp) has helped me know, not just feel, no matter the outcome, I’m strong, I’m blessed, I’m brave and it’s okay not to take on this fight alone.
Our concerns might be different and the treatments too, but deep down we are all the same, perfectly imperfect and that’s okay. I’m ready to LivOn and live my purpose in life.

It was indeed a great meeting full of information and relief from stress.

Alesia C.

LivOn Journey Camp has been a great experience for me. I loved the small intimate setting. I felt at home and there was no judgement. I met some wonderful people who were or had battled the same thing. It was great to be able to get away from life’s hustle and bustle and just relax and connect with myself and others. The crafts were great in helping us understand ourselves. I found out so many things about myself.

Deborah M.

I would like to say that I’m very thankful to be a part of the LivOn Journey Camp. It was amazing!

Carol W.

I am grateful to have been chosen to be a part of the LivOn Journey Camp. It was something I believe I needed. To be around like-minded cancer survivors with similar but different cancer treatment journeys. No right or wrong, non-judgmental safe place to share experiences and learn about the cancer journey roadmap. JoLanda did an excellent job of coaching us with the various topics of new opportunities, relationship transitions, spiritual shift, personal fame, self-guidance and even the trench. Being mindful of those things in life, EGO, that’s keeping me from living my best life. My overall experience on a scale of 1-10, 10=excellent. This experience is life changing for the better. Thank you

Paula E.

When I got the call to be a part of this LivOn Journey Camp I was excited. I love Father God’s timing on each journey. He has for me, because I know what He brings me to He will bring me through. I love giving and doing for others. I know that with my hands open to give they are also open to receive. And I receive this special gift of LivOn Journey Camp and just thankful and grateful for it. Thanks so much. Blessing to you and yours.

National Cancer Survivors Day

National Cancer Survivors Day® is more than just a celebration. It’s where we join together to recognize cancer survivors, raise awareness of the ongoing challenges they face because of their disease, acknowledge milestones, and most of all – celebrate living life.

H-Town Line Dancers

We thoroughly enjoyed this event. It was very well planned, and the rain couldn’t put a damper on the event! We look forward to participating again next year.

Taryn W.

This event positively impacted the community with a festive atmosphere of fun activities such as games, line dancing, and spotlighting cancer survivors.

Monica N.

To see the balloons fill the sky was a perfect demonstration of change and renewal and serves as an ever-present reminder of the fragility and sacredness of life. This event exemplified Mrs. Harris’s commitment to being a steadfast source of encouragement for cancer survivors and fighters across North Alabama.

Ronald and Cassandra T.

It was truly a blessing to fellowship with survivors, family and friends at the National Cancer Survivors Day! Our favorite part was the balloon release to honor relatives, survivors, and those who lost their fight to cancer. Thank you again, for taking time out to celebrate such a memorable event.

Tonya B.

It was an amazing event filled with inspiration, motivation and a powerful presence of hope!! The balloon release was like sending my cares and thanks to God! Thank you for coordinating a wonderful event.

Betty R.

It was a beautiful sight to see the balloons released in the sky. I’m looking forward to next year.

La Keshia B.

It’s an honor to stand with those who fought cancer and survived. To see their triumph and gratefulness as we also remember those who are no longer with us is truly a blessing. Let us be ever thankful for those who survived to tell their story.

Brenda B.

I was humbled to be in the presence of survivors. It was a great celebration of life after cancer.
