Many Inspired at Methodist Charlton Women in Ministry Brunch

The annual First Ladies and Women in Ministry brunch at Methodist Charlton Medical Center inspired, entertained, and enlightened all in attendance. Guest speaker Teri O’Connor, CFRE, executive director of Advancement by Design, spoke on “How to Ask for a Million Dollars.” O’Connor shared ways to engage constituents in a way that opens the door to major gifts for ministries and nonprofit organizations.

Following the welcome by Methodist Charlton President Jonathan S. Davis, FACHE, and invocation by Cheryl Wesley, First Lady of Antioch Fellowship Missionary Baptist Church, the audience was treated to musical entertainment by national recording artist Erica Lane.

Marilyn Mansfield, author, certified personality trainer, and wife of Methodist president and CEO Stephen L. Mansfield, PhD, FACHE, served as mistress of ceremonies.

Other participants included Methodist Vice President Pastoral Care Caesar Rentie and Christian Women in Media Association founder and President Suellen Roberts.
