Priscilla Shirer, as a communication major in college, had plans to be a television news anchor — but God had other ideas. While interning at a Christian radio station in Houston, she began to receive invitations to do Bible studies at small women’s events in the area. At only 18 she shared the simple truths of Scripture that she was studying in her own personal time with the Lord... and she has been in full-time ministry ever since. Priscilla Shirer’s ministry to women across the country and around the world is focused on the expository teaching of the Word of God. Her desire is to see women come to a full understanding of who they are in Christ by hearing the uncompromising truth of Scripture. She is author of He Speaks to Me: Preparing to Hear from God and Discerning The Voice Of God: How to Recognize When God Speaks.

Vicki Yohe leads worship and concert services and is a recording artist for PureSprings/EMI. Born into a minister's family, she wrote and sang her first song at the age of 5. At 17, she entered Jackson College of Ministries, and after two years of college, accepted a music director position near Baton Rouge, LA. Since her debut recording, Vicki Yoh'e, requests for concert services increased to the point that Vicki sensed God was leading her down a new path of ministry. Her recording career has included Christian radio hits such as The Mercy Seat, Under The Blood, and Something About My Praise for GIANT records, two projects with Aluminum Records which includes her holiday release Christmas Presence, and the Dove Award-nominated Because of Who You Are for PureSprings/EMI. Aside from the many US services that she ministers through every year, she annually spends several weeks ministering in various parts of Africa, Europe, and Asia. In addition, Vicki Yohe Ministries is developing the New Destiny Centre for Children in Uganda, Africa.
