Emma Harrell

Emma serves as our Church Partnerships Coordinator at Lifeline, joining the team in 2025. Originally from Brandon, MS, Emma holds a degree in Finance with a minor in Child Advocacy from The University of Southern Mississippi. Before relocating to Birmingham, she worked with the Mississippi Department of Child Protection Services, focusing on CarePortal initiatives and deepening her commitment to supporting children and families in the foster care system. Emma is passionate about living out the biblical call to care for widows and orphans and is grateful for the opportunity to do so at Lifeline. In her free time, she enjoys exploring downtown areas and local trails. An interesting fact about Emma is that she moved to Alabama just two days before starting her role at Lifeline.
Favorite Scripture: Mark 5:34 – “‘Daughter,’ he said to her, ‘your faith has saved you. Go in peace and be healed from your affliction.'”
