Women’s History Month Spotlight: Jocelynn Murphy

The National Council of Negro Women Columbus GA Section is thrilled to honor a woman who truly defines "determination," Jocelynn Murphy, for Women’s History Month!

Since joining our sisterhood in 2025, Jocelynn has shown us all what it looks like to pursue your dreams with purpose. Last year was a monumental one for her—she successfully completed her Associate Degree while balancing the beautiful responsibilities of being a wife and a devoted mother of four!

But she isn’t stopping there. We are so proud to announce that Jocelynn has just been accepted into Columbus State University to pursue her Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education.

In addition to her studies and her role at home, Jocelynn serves as the Youth Minister for Faith Fusion at Faith Land Church International, where she leads as the Department Head for the Youth Department.

She stays grounded and focused through a powerful piece of advice from her father:

“Whoever can control your emotions can control your destiny.”

Jocelynn, your resilience and heart for the next generation are an inspiration to us all! Join us in celebrating her many milestones and her bright future as a future educator!
