Leah Chikumbindi, Founder & Executive Director, Set Apart Global Ministries
Leah is the visionary founder of Set Apart Global Ministries and a founding member of Garland Women For Good. Originally from Zimbabwe, she immigrated to the United States in the mid-1990s. Though she accepted Christ as a teenager, it was in 2004—during the Women of Faith Conference in Dallas—that she experienced a life-changing encounter with God’s love. This powerful moment marked a turning point, as she felt the Lord heal years of pain and a deep calling fore her to share that freedom with young girls.
In 2007, Leah began hosting small gatherings in her home called The Princess in Me, creating a safe and nurturing space for neighborhood girls to hear the gospel and embrace their identity as daughters of the King. By 2011, her ministry had expanded to mentoring teenage and college-age girls, focusing on Patience, Purity & Purpose. Through transparent storytelling and biblical discipleship, Leah inspired others by showing how God had turned her trials into testimony.
Recognizing a broader calling, Leah officially launched Girls Set Apart Ministries in 2014. This Bible-based, nonprofit organization serves girls from elementary through high school, mentoring them in faith and leadership. In 2019, the ministry expanded to include young boys through the launch of Boys of Valor, prompting a name change to
Set Apart Global Ministries.
Leah lives in Princeton, Texas, with her husband and their children. Her husband owns and operates an auto mechanic shop, while Leah continues to mentor, speak, and write. She is passionate about writing, cooking, small-space decorating, and pursuing continued spiritual and educational growth.
“As my children grow, I find myself with more time to study God’s Word and encourage women through public engagements. Yet, above all, my highest and most treasured calling is to be a wife to my husband, a mother to our children and a grandmother to our grand daughter.”
