Debbie Streicher

Cumberland, MD

Over the past 25 years, Debbie has facilitated, overseen, organized, and developed faith formation programs from infants through adults in the congregational setting. In addition to her role as Associate Consultant at Vibrant Faith Ministries, Debbie is Project Coordinator for Milestones Ministry and a Curator for the Faith Formation Learning Exchange. As a volunteer, she serves as president for the Christian Education Network of the ELCA (formerly LACE) , a national support network for resources in congregations.

She has worked intricately with Faith Inkubators resources and has consulted and led events across the United States and in Australia for congregations focusing on the importance of establishing faith practices in the congregation and in the home.

Her background is in language. Coupled with her passion for family ministry, she uses her knowledge and experience learned from teaching languages as a tool to implement systems for teaching about immersion in the language of faith. Her vision is to involve all ages in faith formation, strengthen family relationships through Spiritual growth, and empower God-given gifts to do ministry.

Debbie has lived in many places across the country, in Spain, and in Japan thanks to her husband’s career in the Navy. She and her husband, Burt, have three sons, a daughter-in-law, and two grandsons.
