Kicking off Day 1 of the UNITY Earth Ambassador Western Regional Gathering in Arizona!
#EarthAmbassador
Twas the night before the Gathering glowing bright,
Four young Earth Ambassadors prepared for the big day’s light.
Jizelle dreamed of youth rising, voices strong and aware;
Laylalanai envisioned healing—protecting land, water, air.
Amaya practiced her message of courage, hope, and choice;
Vydell packed tools for action, lifting Earth with his voice.
The desert night whispered, “Your generation leads the way,”
And they felt their purpose strengthen as dawn neared the day.
For tomorrow they’d gather—young leaders standing tall,
Earth Ambassadors united to empower, protect, and inspire all.
