Meet Lori -
Hello, my name is Lori Militello, and I live in the beautiful Great Lakes state of Michigan. I was born in the iconic city of Detroit and currently live in the Detroit metropolitan area with the love of my life and best friend Michael. We've been married since 1986, have three adult children, two sons-in-law, and four grandchildren. They are truly a blessing and the joy of my life!
At age twelve I embraced the gospel message with all my heart and prayed the prayer of salvation while attending Vacation Bible School at a local church. It was there that a kind woman gave me a bible and I memorized scripture for the first time.
I absolutely loved it! From there my walk with the Lord continued to grow as I read my bible and attended youth group regularly. At eighteen I felt a strong desire to teach and be involved in ministry work. Then after several years of life experiences and preparation, the incredible journey began.
Outside of my love for the Lord and family, I am passionate about women's ministry. Had anyone told me years ago that I would be in women's ministry and a shepherd to women, I probably would've laughed and said, "Seriously?" From elementary to high school, I can remember several occasions being the victim of mean girls. I had more boys as friends because they were nicer and more fun to be with. In my opinion girls were catty, chatty, cliquey, and icky and wanted little to do with them. So as you can see, women's ministry was certainly not my idea! It has truly been the Lord's leading.
Now, after 27 years my love for the Lord and ministry have only grown! Involvement in Women's Ministry at our home church as well as speaking and ministering outside of the church has allowed me so much experience and wonderful connections with other women! I am more passionate than ever about touching the lives of women with the truth of God's word and His love!
"I would absolutely love the opportunity to speak at your next event!"
