Makayla Swygert

Each year, the National WMU (Woman’s Missionary Union) selects a small group of outstanding young women to represent Acteens through the National Top Teens. The group is selected based on strong involvement with and dedication to Christ and missions, as well as strong leadership and service in church, school, and community.

In January 2012, National WMU announced that Makayla Swygertwould be one of this year’s three National Top Teens. As a Top Teen, Makayla will represent WMU at meetings across South Carolina and write for the S.C. WMU’s newsletter and Facebook pages. Makayla will also serve on this year’s S.C. WMU State Youth Panel. Makayla served as a S.C. Top Teen in 2010 and is currently serving as a S.C. WMU State Panelist. 

Makayla is a junior at Laurence Manning Academy where she is a member of the Anchor Club, History Club and Beta Club.  She is also Vice President of the National Honor Society and Co-Chaplain for Student Council.
