Bio:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nBecky Carpenter has been an educator over 25 years. She holds a BS degree in Business and a MS degree in Education <\/em> <\/em>Administration. Included in her experience is being a high school business & technology teacher; a Corporate Director of <\/em> <\/em>Education and Training and Continuous Improvement Advisor for a Fortune 500 company; and both a campus and district <\/em> level public & private school administrator. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nShe believes educators are the true, unspoken missionaries, as they walk into a life changing mission field every single <\/em> <\/em>day. Although she loved working with teenagers, her heart was called into her current role, serving full time in the field of <\/em> <\/em>ministry and missions. She is an ordained minister of the gospel of Jesus Christ as she travels abroad to foreign mission <\/em> fields teaching about the \u2018hope\u2019 found only in Jesus. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nBecky is humbled at all the opportunities she\u2019s given working with students and adults. She feels privileged and blessed <\/em> <\/em>to be given opportunities to speak to various churches, ladies\u2019 conferences, ladies\u2019 retreats, youth events, business <\/em> <\/em>events, as well as other venues to share about life changing experiences. Becky is the founder of ‘<\/em>One Day Closer <\/em><\/strong> <\/em><\/strong>Ministries’ <\/em><\/strong>where she is a Christian Motivational Speaker who travels across the US and globally to bring uplifting and <\/em> <\/em>encouraging messages of <\/em>perseverance and hope<\/em><\/strong>. She\u2019s had the honor of speaking to students and ladies in the <\/em> <\/em>countries of Haiti, Honduras, and Guatemala. She has also been blessed with the opportunity to speak with the Native <\/em> <\/em>American ladies of the \u2018Navajo Nation\u2019 in Winslow, Arizona. Becky is also a missionary as ODC Ministries partners with <\/em> <\/em>other non-profits to help meet physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of others, both here in the United States and <\/em> <\/em>abroad.<\/em> <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nBecky has been married to her husband, David for 31 years. When asked what is her greatest accomplishment, she will <\/em> <\/em>not hesitate to say it is her <\/em>two beautiful daughters<\/em><\/strong>. Her oldest daughter Shelbi who graduated magna cum laude from <\/em> <\/em>Texas A & M University with a bachelor\u2019s degree in Psychology and recently completed a Master\u2019s degree in Social Work. <\/em> <\/em>Shelbi is a full-time elementary teacher and loves working with children who struggle with the challenges and tragedies in <\/em> <\/em>life where she can also share about the hope found in Jesus. Shelbi is married to her husband Matt, who is a youth <\/em> <\/em>pastor. Matt also brings into the family two beautiful little girls who are 8 and 10 years old. Shelbi and Matt in October, <\/em> <\/em>2019, brought into this world a handsome baby boy named \u2018Carter\u2019 and these 3 little humans have given Becky the title of <\/em> \u2018Bebe.\u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nBecky\u2019s youngest daughter Skylar is a free-spirited, fun-loving typical teenager who illuminated the light of Jesus as she <\/em> <\/em>loved everyone unconditionally in her own, animated and contagious personality. Becky shares the journey that began in <\/em> <\/em>2011 when her youngest daughter Skylar, at the age of 15, went home to be with Jesus as a result of a tragic car crash <\/em> <\/em>while traveling on a school trip. Becky was the HS Vice Principal at the time and arrived on the scene to discover the one <\/em> student fatality was her own daughter. <\/em>The journey of seeing \u2018hope THROUGH tragedy\u2019 began that day<\/em><\/strong>. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nBecky is not a speaker who dwells on the tragedy, but rather <\/em>shifts our perspective toward the light <\/em><\/strong>even while<\/em> <\/em>traveling \u2018through\u2019 the darkest of times. She uses humor and laughter throughout her presentations and the audiences <\/em> <\/em>leave with both tears of laughter and tears of joy as she allows others to SEE joy and believe the HOPE that awaits those <\/em> who follow Jesus. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nRegardless of her resume, accomplishments, or travels, Becky is now known best as \u2018a typical mom.\u2019 A mom who\u2019s<\/em> <\/em>relaying the message of her youngest daughter Skylar, who is changing the world…one person at a time. <\/em> <\/em> <\/em> <\/em> <\/em>\u201c\u2026in this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.\u201d (John 16:33)<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Becky Carpenter Email:\u00a0Becky@onedaycloser.net BeckyCarpenter.net OneDayCloser.net Bio: Becky Carpenter has been an educator over 25 years.
