ELDER NINA BROOKS

Virginia "Nina" Brooks, a California native, is a mother of six and grandmother of three. She accepted Jesus as her Lord and Savior at age seven but struggled with her identity due to a conflicting home life of "street living" during the week and "church life" on weekends.

Nina served in various church roles but felt a deeper calling. She experienced condemnation and mistaken identity within the church, which fueled her desire to help others understand the true love of the Father. Joining Out the Box Ministries (OTB) in 2021 transformed her life, revealing her true identity and God's unconditional love.

Nina now serves as Assistant Pastor at OTB, leads a work Bible study, and co-leads the children's Bible study. Her ultimate desire is to fulfill God's purpose for her life, pursuing His heart and accomplishing His will as described in Acts 13:22.
