Her greatest joy is hanging out with her husband of 37 years, her two sons, her daughter-in-law and grandchildren at their home in Canada.

Family and Children's Ministry

Children's Ministry is where my heart has been for 30 years. I have a passion for teaching God's word and to teach how to recognize His voice by using whimsical creativity and thrifty practicality in object lessons, games, songs, declarations and creative expressions of worship. I love teaching the kids along side their family teaching them biblical truths and foundations of their faith.

Experience

I worked for two decades in volunteer positions in Children’s Ministry in small churches before finally getting a paid position.
I've worked in the local church, and led with teams at Family Camp for 12 years. With Handle with Care, I create digital content, coach CM Leaders, consult with churches and speak internationally.
I served with the PAOC ABNWT District as the Children’s Ministry Specialist with 120 churches in vitalization and directing Children's Ministry Conferences and week-long, overnight Kids Camp.
I serve as the Next Gen Children's Coordinator for the PAOC.

Leann Woelk has been an amazing gift to our Children’s Ministry at North Pointe Community Church. Through her expertise in working with children and teams she has been able to diagnose areas of concern and coach us to greater effectiveness and unity. She is organized, motivated, attentive to detail, and has been able to add value to our staff and volunteers through her keen eye to our strengths and growth areas. She has been able to practically guide us forward with kindness and clear communication. I know that Leann would be a gift to your church and children's ministry as she has been to ours.
