Mary Deckert
Mary Deckert has over 40 years’ experience in multiple communications and strategic functions including leadership, marketing, crisis management, creative and problem-solving roles in government and business (both private and public sectors); for-profit and not-for-profit organizations. Her background in journalism, management and marketing, helping clients successfully combat character attacks, regulatory battles and sales challenges, was fertile training ground for developing the skill and passion to help others discover Christ and then build a strong, intimate and life-changing relationship with Him, which she has been delighted to do for the past 25 years.
She has served multiple roles in her church as Communications Director, Women’s Ministry leader, bible study/group leader, Youth Group Leader, Altar Ministry Worker, children’s program developer, and Sunday School Teacher for all ages. And she’s most delighted when putting those marketing/communications talents to use in Kingdom work.
