When She Leads is an active community of women in ministry leadership. Knowing women contribute high levels of church leadership, we want women to feel encouraged, equipped and connected. Our podcast, conferences, zoom gatherings, resources and our all-new care and coaching team are designed with this vision in focus.
Brenda Leavenworth is an author and speaker based in Temecula, CA. She has written several in-depth Bible studies and has travelled the globe to share God’s Word.
She holds a bachelor’s degree in Biblical Studies from Calvary Chapel University, where she now works in the Women’s Department, and is currently working on her master’s degree with an emphasis in Christian Leadership.
She has a heart to see women develop as leaders and is spearheading a CGN (Calvary Global Network) Task Team for Women in Ministry. Married to Ted who ministers as the Senior Pastor of Reliance Church, she currently loves and serves her community as the Director of Women’s Ministry. Together they have three adult children and ten beautiful grandchildren.
Kelly has been the Director of Women’s Ministry at Calvary Murrieta for over 30 years and loves what she does. She has a passion to see women grow in their faith and become doers of the Word, not hearers only. She is a conference/retreat speaker, as well as a Bible Study teacher. She is the author of a Bible Study series called “Reasons to Rejoice.”
Concerning Human Trafficking and Modern Day Slavery, she has a passion to advocate for the rights of the oppressed and exploited, and to “Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves.” Kelly is a volunteer for Riverside County’s Anti-Human Trafficking Task Force and oversees the Justice Ministry, working to help people figure out how to use their gifts, talents, and finances in fighting this battle. She also volunteers with other community organizations, including Big Brothers/Big Sisters in the Inland Empire and the Murrieta Food Pantry.
Krista and her family live and serve as missionaries in the Amazonian region of Brazil in Belem, Para. She and her husband Kyle have been married for 20 years. They have two sons Aidan and Liam. She and her husband planted Calvary Chapel Belem where Kyle is the pastor and Krista serves as the women’s ministry leader and leads the Proverbs 24:11 ministry (a ministry dedicated to individuals involved in human trafficking and prostitution).
Krista has been involved in ministry for over 15 years. She is currently pursuing her doctorate’s degree in counseling focusing on trauma as her heart’s desire is to see the hurt healed and walking with the Lord.
This year’s When She Leads conference is for every woman serving in ministry. Our theme is, Breaking New Ground, taken from Hosea 10:12 – “Sow for yourselves with a view to righteousness, harvest in accordance with kindness, break up your uncultivated ground for it is time to seek the Lord until he comes and rains righteousness on you.” (NASB)
Join our When She Leads zoom gatherings, where we spend time getting to know one another and praying together on the first Tuesday of the month beginning January 3, 2023. Come as we join together 2-3 times a year as a community of servant-leaders, like-minded with a desire to ask the Lord to go before us and do mighty works within our congregations, communities, and to the ends of the earth.
