Kelly Miller has been involved in Christian outreach to many of the world’s most vulnerable for almost 30 years.

Lenora Foster-Branch
Chief Administrative Officer
Lenora Foster-Branch joined Cross International as their Chief Administrative Officer in 2020, overseeing Accounting, HR, Operations and IT.
Her career in the field of accounting has been a journey of seizing every opportunity to improve her performance and the performance of those around her from audit to management. She has worked in a leadership management position in the non-profit world for about 20 years.
As she will attest, perfection may not always be possible, but her work ethic drives her to apply all she has learned to tackle difficult challenges and solve persistent problems in the realm of finance and strategic planning.
Her methods are inventive, her diligence to detail, her organizational, auditing and time management skills lend themselves to simplifying archaic and time-consuming tasks for herself and team members. Her varied work experiences inform her strategies to supervise and motivate team members to work synergistically to realize their full potential together as a unit and as an organization.
As a believer in Christ, Cross International came at a pivotal time in her life when she was engaging the idea of how she could use her time to serve others in Christ’s name.
Her motivation is in Philippians 4-13: “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
