LaKeisha’s heart is truly that of a servant. Her influence on the lives of those around her is
palpable. The love and genuine concern for the individuals she touches is astounding. What is
most amazing though is through meeting this woman of God, most wouldn’t ascertain her many
accomplishments right away. She wears humility like a garment.
In her lifetime, this mother of two sons and grandmother to twin boys has faced many battles.
One of the most significant ones was being diagnosed with a rare form of Ovarian cancer in June
of 2010. Where many would have lost hope, she in fact kept her faith. Lakeisha through the
grace of God underwent 2 major surgeries within a short 2-month period. Through faith and
prayer by January 2011 she was cleared of the cancer! This amazing victory launched LaKeisha
even further into ministry.

appearances on Dominion TV and The Fierce, Ignition & Activation Radio Show, with Apostle
