Deirdre Stewart is a Substitute Teacher for special needs children and she has a love for teaching preschoolers. She earned her BA in Human Development with an emphasis in Child Development. Deirdre's passions are for worship and praise as well as prayer and intercession. She has a heart to minister the love of God to the homeless, broken and seemingly forgotten and unnoticed of this world; to remind them of their worth and value, that they may know the love of God. Her pursuit in this life is to walk in the footsteps of Jesus and be a reflection of His heart. Her favorite scripture is: “...how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power. He went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.” Acts 10:38 ESV
