Teresa Harmening

Featured Speaker & Praise and Worship

“Unshakable Pursuit”

I Corinthians 15:58

Teresa Harmening has the unique ability to use words and music to inspire others to seek God with a fresh passion. Her enthusiasm for the Lord reflects a message of joy and hope that comes from spending time in God’s Word, the foundation for a dynamic life in Christ.

As a speaker and vibrant communicator of God’s Word, Teresa’s passion is to see people awakened with a fresh hunger to know God and come into a deep and authentic relationship with Him that will impact their lives for God’s kingdom. Speaking and singing at women’s events across the country and sharing this joyful message of God’s love is the heartbeat of this ministry.

Teresa has served at Leesville Baptist Church near Addielou, Texas for the past 37 years in the music ministry as a worship leader. When she is not on the road traveling and speaking, she and her husband, Boyd, enjoy spending time with their two precious granddaughters.

Please make your reservations by Monday, February 11, 2019 by signing the sign-up sheet located on the Sister2Sister Bulletin Board in the Fellowship Hall. Please indicate the dates you will be attending. If you would like to host a table at the luncheon, please sign the sign-up sheet also located on the S2S Bulletin Board.
