Debi Pryde

Debi has been active in local church ministries for over forty years. She has taught and led various women's ministries including seminar speaking, college-level teaching, Sunday school classes, soul-winning and visitation classes, counseling, and Bible studies. She and her husband, Tom, did couples' counseling, as well as led singles' groups within their local church. In January 2018, Tom graduated to his heavenly home after a six-year battle with the lung disease, IPF (see more on Tom's story at trumpetlungs.wordpress.com).

While adjusting to life "without her other half," Debi still does one-on-one counseling, but her burden is to train other women to counsel women using God's Word. She teaches counseling seminars across the United States and internationally to hundreds of women every year with the goal of raising up a new generation of ladies equipped to help heal wounded souls in need of Christ's redeeming love.

Debi currently resides southern California with her German Shepherd, Hugo, and between visits from grandchildren, enjoys tending her rose garden and eating chocolate.
