Lady Likesha M. Tillman...
To know the Elder Likesha Morgan Tillman, is to understand that she has been sent as an advocate of the gospel. One who has been sanctified and ordained from her mother's womb for such a time as this. She received her early religious education and spiritual nurturing at New Bethel Baptist Church, in the great city of High Point, NC under the awesome leadership of Pastor John Mason. At an early age, God's presence was upon her as He molded her into a phenomenally anointed, God appointed, spirit filled leader for the body of Christ. This chosen vessel has a passion for ministry, a nurturing heart, and love for people, which has resulted in God strategically planting her in the vineyard as she answered the call to ministry in December 2000.
It is no secret Elder Tillman, has been mandated to the gospel ministry with her many gifts. Elder Tillman has served God's people in several capacities including, Assistant Pastor at Glorious Evangelistic COGIC, High Point, NC and Co-Pastor at Divine Vision International Ministries, Burlington, NC. She has also been known for her previous singing projects as she has worked and recorded with High Point Community Fellowship Gospel Choir, Evangelist Anthony Hill, Dorothy Norwood, Albertina Walker, The Barrino Family, and Whole Life Community Church featuring Pastor Deborah Patterson Brown, to name a few.
Elder Tillman indeed has a power-packed, electrifying word for God's people in this latter day. Walking in grace and living a lifestyle of holiness, she has a unique but fiery presentation of the gospel that will convict, empower, encourage, and transform.

WOVEN is designed to help impart these attributes into young women through teaching the importance of character, integrity, responsibility, and independence.
The vivacious Elder Tillman is the daughter of Ms. Mary Morgan & Mr. William Noland. Through life's experiences she sees the benefit in the opportunity of helping other young women to exemplify characteristics that would ignite the fascination of Delilah, the decision of Ruth, the beauty of Rachel, and the ambition of Rebekah, the faith of Rahab, the eloquence of Abigail, the efficiency of Martha, and the meditation of Mary.
Elder Tillman's background in administration has led to extensive consulting and administrative services through out the United States. She has committed to serving as the national administrator for several nonprofit and Christian organizations.

Tillman and faithfully served as the illustrious First Lady of Living Water Baptist Church, in High Point, NC until February 2007. Together they have been divinely mandated to impact the body of Christ; therefore they share the awesome responsibility of transitioning & equipping God's people for kingdom building.
Pastor & Elder Tillman are very family oriented and have a genuine love for people. They are the proud parents of one daughter, Miss Morgan Destiny Tillman.
