There are seasons when we are waiting for the answer.
Seasons when we are walking through the unknown.
And seasons when we can finally look back and say…“Have I mentioned He’s been faithful?”
WiseWoman 2027 is a weekend set apart for women to gather in the presence of God, worship together, hear His Word, pray for one another, and remember the faithfulness of the One who has carried us through every season.
This year, we are honored to welcome GINA LEWIS as our Keynote Speaker for WiseWoman 2027!
Gina will join an incredible group of women who will share the Word, their testimonies, and the lessons God has written into their lives.

2027 Guest Speakers
Gina Lewis
HAVE I MENTIONED HE HAS BEEN FAITHFUL?
What if the very places you never imagined walking through became the places where you discovered just how faithful God really is?
Life doesn’t always look the way we thought it would. There are battles we didn’t expect, valleys we didn’t choose, and seasons that leave us wondering, *“God, where are You?”*
But when we look back, we can see His fingerprints all along the journey.
**He was faithful in the valley.
He was faithful in the waiting.
He was faithful in the battle.
And He is faithful today.**
In this powerful session, Gina Lewis will challenge us to stop overlooking the faithfulness of God in the middle of our everyday lives. We’ll discover how God can take our hardest seasons, deepest valleys, and greatest challenges and turn them into something beautiful for His glory.
Just as God instructed His people to remember and tell the next generation what He had done, **we have a story to tell.**
Our stories matter.
Our valleys matter.
Our victories matter.
**Because they all testify to the same truth: God has been faithful.**
Come ready to remember.
Come ready to recognize His hand.
Come ready to share your story.
And together, let’s declare:
**“Have I mentioned… He has been faithful?”**
Gina Mayse Lewis is 53 years old and has been married to her high school sweetheart for 34 years. Together, they have a son and daughter, both married, and four grandchildren. Born and raised in Forest City, North Carolina, Gina and her family still call it home. Her children and their families live beside and behind them, creating their own special family compound.
Through many health challenges since 2013, Gina has experienced firsthand the faithfulness of God. Her journey has given her a heart for ministering to women who are walking through difficult seasons, including those facing cancer.
Gina was a hairdresser for 15 years and also had the privilege of being a stay-at-home mom. She was trained to teach a cancer class for women and partnered with the local hospital and the American Cancer Society to help establish the program in her county. She also served for several years as the leader of her church’s women’s ministry, Girlfriends Unlimited, and continues to host Bible studies for women in her home from time to time.
Today, Gina continues to minister to women along life’s journey, particularly those facing cancer, just as she has. She believes the Lord continually places people in her path for a purpose and considers her greatest ministry to be her family—her husband, children, grandchildren, daughter-in-love, and son-in-love.
For Gina, there is nothing more beautiful than seeing God through the eyes of children and learning the lessons her own children have taught her throughout the years. Her life is a testimony of God’s faithfulness, and she is honored to share what He has taught her along the way.
Deborah Potter
Deborah Potter is a woman whose faith has been forged in the fire of life’s hardest seasons. She has walked through marriage, divorce, single motherhood, the sudden loss of her husband and father within months of one another, numerous surgeries resulting in the loss of her eyesight, and years of caring for her husband through cancer and for two sets of aging parents.
Through every heartbreak, every unanswered question, and every season that stretched her faith, Deborah has discovered a truth that has become the foundation of her life: when we are faithful, God is always more faithful.
She knows firsthand that walking by faith in the midst of overwhelming circumstances can challenge our peace. Yet she has learned to stand firmly on the promise of Romans 5:1: “Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Deborah’s testimony is not that life has been easy, but that God has been faithful through it all. Her heart is to encourage others to find the peace of God in the middle of their storms—to trust Him when they cannot see the way forward and to discover that His presence is greater than their circumstances.
For Deborah, helping women walk in the peace that passes all understanding is more than a message—it is a personal testimony, a calling, and a balm to her soul.
Deborah Potter
Deborah Potter is a licensed minister with Christian Fellowship and has faithfully served in ministry for more than two decades. Her heart for ministry has been shaped by the legacy of her late husband, Jackie, who was a faithful servant of the Lord, as well as by her father, whom she has the privilege of ministering alongside today.
In addition to her ministry, Deborah is a successful businesswoman, serving as owner, president, and environmental director of Cleveland Capital Holdings. Yet, above every professional accomplishment, her greatest desire is to honor God and faithfully share His truth.
The scripture she holds close to her heart is John 17:17: “Sanctify them through thy Word: Thy Word is Truth.” Deborah has a passion for bringing the truth of God’s Word to others, teaching from both the Old and New Testaments, including the study of eschatology. Her desire is to encourage others to know God’s Word, recognize His truth, and draw closer to Him through it.
Marisa Lehotsky
The Faithfulness of Jesus!
Through every season of life, we are met by a Savior who never changes. In seasons of promise, in moments when life feels overwhelming, and in the valleys we never expected to walk through, Jesus remains faithful. Marisa's message is an invitation to look beyond our circumstances and discover the unchanging character of the One who walks with us through them all. No matter what season you find yourself in, His faithfulness has not wavered, His presence has not left, and His love has not failed. Come be reminded that the story of your season is held by a Savior who has always been, and will always be, faithful.
Marisa Lehotsky
Marisa Lehotsky, MHA, is a Practice Optimization Partner with Ensemble Health and also a woman who has a deep love for Jesus and a heart to encourage other women in their faith. As a newlywed, Marisa is stepping into this new season of life with joy and a desire to follow wherever God leads. She has been an annual speaker for WiseWoman Retreats & Conferences and has become a beloved part of the WiseWoman family, bringing a genuine passion for Jesus, a powerful testimony of prayer, and an encouraging word to women year after year.
One of the greatest gifts God has cultivated in Marisa is her prayer life. She has witnessed God reveal Himself through prayers prayed in faith and answers that could only be explained by His faithfulness. Her desire is to share that faith with other women and encourage them to seek God, trust His Word, and believe that He is always working—even when they cannot yet see the answer.
Her favorite Scripture is John 15:4: “Remain in me, as I also remain in you.” Marisa’s life and ministry are a beautiful reflection of what it means to remain connected to Jesus, trust Him in every season, and believe in the power of prayer.

She has a heart for encouraging women to hear His voice, follow His leading, and find joy along the way.
