Today, we introduce you to someone you may recognize even if you’ve never met her. As a member of the Praise Team, she’s often on the platform during the weekend services helping lead the congregation in worship. If you have the privilege to know her as a friend, you know her to be a loving mother and wife, a friend that always has an encouraging word and a fierce prayer warrior. Take a few minutes and get to know a little about today’s Reader Profile, Colleen Conely.
Tell us a little about yourself and who’s in your house.
I am married for 14 years to my wonderful husband and friend David. We have three children that we homeschool, and I work as a nurse in the ICU here in Lubbock. We have a border collie, a boxer, a ragdoll cat and 2 bunnies.
How long have you attended Trinity Church and in what areas do you serve?
I started attending Trinity in 1990 when I was going to nursing school. Over the years, I have been involved in the singles’ group, children’s ministry, the choir and Women’s ministry. We have also helped at the Storehouse and in the ministry of helps when needed. Currently, I am on the praise team.
What are you listening to and reading lately?
I like to listen to the praise and worship radio on Pandora, and I am reading Six Ways to Keep the “Little” in Your Girl by Dannah Gresh.
Tell us something you enjoy doing as a family and something you and David enjoy doing just as a couple.
As a family, we like to go to the Lady Raider basketball games. We like to play dominoes and go on adventures. As a couple, David and I like to go to quiet places and talk.
What is something you look forward to in 2012?
In 2012, I am looking forward to traveling with my family, and I would like to do the new Beth Moore Bible study, James.
Colleen…the girl to inspires me to worship my God.
