The FAITHPRENEUR® Winnie Burch Award recognizes entrepreneurs with established businesses, who exemplify the love of God, are unshakeable in their faith, and continuously rise to the occasion of their divine marketplace assignments, reshaping the world, facilitating communal change, and impacting the lives of others as they press toward the Mark, Above it All. 

The Story: Mother, teacher, author, designer, entrepreneur, and friend, are but a few of the words used to describe the prolific gifts God used Winnie Burch to shower on this world. Winnie Burch, a pioneer of faith, ran the race, with her eyes fixed on Jesus, reflecting his light to whomever she encountered. Born in a time when it was unpopular to both display the love of Christ through the marketplace, Winnie disrupted the status-quo to be an example to her community, that you CAN use the talents God's given, in all of its multi-facets, and shine His light for all to see. 

Steadfast and unwavering in her commitments, Winnie continued as an entrepreneur, even in the face of a cancer diagnosis. She walked in victory, serving, encouraging, advocating for, and cultivating the next generations who would follow in her footsteps.Her ministry of art, design, and publishing has been the water to the gifts of so many, all the way up to her transition back to the Father and received her angel wings in 2018. The Winnie Burch Award exemplifies the legacy she left in her wake, and the standard God used her life to inspire. 

It is with great honor that we bestow this illustrious award upon this year's recipient.
