What people say about me

“Rachelle is a problem solver and has the unique ability to look at multiple sides of an issue. After much study and evaluation she comes up with a clear, reasonable and principled opinion. She also has a deep heart of compassion and genuine concern for people which can be seen in her interactions with family, friends, her church and community. She is bright and articulate with a great sense of humor and has much to bring to the City Council. Rachelle is also my daughter so you might think I’m biased, but when you have the privilege of meeting her I’m sure you will come to agree with my assessment.”

“Rachelle is easily one of the best leaders I have worked with in student ministries. The reason for that is her persistence in relationships, her ability to speak truth when it matters most, the stability she provides in challenging circumstances, and that she makes it abundantly clear by her actions that she is in your corner even if in that moment you don’t see eye to eye. It is for those reasons I truly believe she will be a City Council member who fights for what’s right and true all the while caring for everyone as she does it.”

“Rachelle is not only a friend, but I’ve also had the privilege of serving & volunteering with her on many projects. She has a strong determination when she believes in something and is committed, loyal and thorough in whatever she does. Rachelle is a woman of her word and is trustworthy. She handles difficult situations with a calm and level-headed approach. Rachelle is insightful, passionate and puts her heart and soul into everything she does! All these things combined makes me confident that she would be an outstanding City Council member and why she definitely has my vote.”

“Having the distinguished privilege of working with Rachelle on a few projects I can testify that she is very passionate about her community.  In addition to respectfully providing feedback about items and issues, it is her willingness to listen with an open mind that sets her most apart from others.  I have found her thoughtfulness and insight on important matters to be very refreshing and look forward to seeing the benefits of her service to the City of Maple Grove in the future.”

“Rachelle Johnson is a strong woman of  integrity and character and is someone who strives to serve and love the people of Maple Grove and surrounding communities well.”

“In an age where many people are simply content to live in a city, she has faithfully served our city and surrounding communities behind the scenes.”

“What I appreciate most about Rachelle is her thoughtful approach to ideas, situations and issues. When she speaks into a subject, I know that she has given it thought. She is gifted at articulating her ideas and I often write down what she has to say. We have worked together at our church and in small groups. She cares deeply about other’s concerns – whether adults or the teens she works with – providing honest and measured insights to the issues at hand. Rachelle would be a great asset to our City Council!”
