Laurie
has been singing in church since she was 6 or 7 years old.
She always loved Jesus as a little girl but
she dedicated her life to The Lord when she was 10 years of
age and recalls the call to ministry ever since that time.
Laurie was also dedicated to pursuing her gift with excellence. She has
won the title of "Best Female Vocalist" in three Talent Searches which
included one duet category with her sister. Laurie also won a
Talent Search by audience appeal (largest number of votes) with no
supporting fans in the audience. She had released 2 recordings
"Sharing His Love" and "When You Reached In My Heart" and her third Cd
was released in 2004 entitled "Love So Amazing". The title
track "Love So Amazing" has been in the top 50 of the American
Idol Underground Faith Charts 7 times and reached as far as #6
on the chart among over 600 songs in the running. She has appeared on
national television several times, done radio interviews and her music
has been played on Christian radio, predominantly in Canada, as well
as Europe and United States.
After The Lord completely healed her from Fibromyalgia in 2001, God
turned what the enemy meant for evil. She has made
several Christian television appearances including 100 Huntley Street
and began speaking at Women's Ministries, sharing her
testimony. Since then, she has seen many ladies commit their
lives to the Lord and receive healing, all for God's glory. Laurie
finds that God's presence is gentle, sweet, very tender and peaceful
during opportunities to minister and pray at the alter with the women.
But Laurie always claims, "God can do whatever He desires
through me and He will show himself however He deems fit."
