Becky Carpenter (Emcee)
Becky is the founder of 'One Day Closer Ministries.' She served 25 years in the mission field called 'education.' In 2011, a family tragedy flipped her comfortable world upside down, leading to an entire 'life' make-over...to include launching the outreach ministry and committing to being a full-time Christian speaker, missionary, and writer. Becky has spoken to audiences of all ages and backgrounds throughout the United States. In addition, Becky travels abroad and has shared with many culturally diverse audiences, delivering the powerful message of HOPE.
Becky embraces her 25 years of experience as a high school educator by bringing messages of purpose, being different, and leaving a positive legacy, to teenagers across the miles...in schools, youth groups and various other teen events.
