To every young man and woman who has faced challenges yet continues to rise, know that your glow is a reflection of God’s light in you. May this journey inspire you to embrace your purpose, walk boldly in faith, and shine brightly in your communities.

To the parents, mentors, and leaders who nurture and guide the youth, your love and wisdom shape the path for future generations. Thank you for keeping the glow alive.

Above all, this is dedicated to our Creator, who makes the crooked paths straight, the weak strong, and the lost found. To God be the glory.
