MEET THE TEAM
Lenora Coates
First and foremost, Lenora considers her primary calling to be a follower of Jesus Christ. Her second calling is to be a wife to her husband, Grant since 1995. After that she is called to be a mom to 3 adult daughters and Lolli to her Grands. Her passion is helping people grow in their relationship with God and others. Through her experiences working at 2 churches as well as 2 non-profit ministries as an administrative assistant, event coordinator, program director, and executive director, God has left some things for her to glean along the way and she hopes to pass some of these along in order to build others up. It is her desire to share the tools she has acquired along her 25+ year journey with God to help you bridge the gap to the arena God has called you to serve in His Kingdom. She wants to see people saved, healed and set free so they can be equipped and empowered to fulfill their divine destiny flourishing on this side of heaven. Special thanks to Heidi Borden Photography.
Marilyn Dantin
Marilyn was baptized at age 12 but rededicated her life at age 19 when her fiancé brought her back to church. She has been married to her husband Danny since 2005 and they have one son named Christian born in 2006. They love to travel and take their beloved Boxer, Gracie on adventures.
She has spent 15+ years serving in a wide variety of roles in children’s ministry until April of 2022 when she and her husband sold their home, moved across town into and RV and started attending a new church. They feel like God was calling them to something new and are excitedly awaiting what God has for them next. Marilyn and her husband love to feed people, physically and spiritually. They never want anyone to leave hungry!

Reyna Lay
Reyna is a visionary and creative at heart. She is captivated by the Word of God due to the impact it has made on her life and her marriage, and she loves sharing her passion for God’s Word with others. She is the founder of Renewed Faith Magazine and the Editor-in-Chief. She is also the group facilitator for Renewed Faith Bible studies.
Reyna is married to Bobby and they have a blended family with 3 children together and 2 amazing bonus kids. She and her husband are both Army Vets.

Reyna has an undergraduate degree in Merchandising and Design from the College of Business at Missouri State, a Masters in Management and Marketing from Harvard, and is working on her second Masters in Bible & Theology.
Jennifer Fuentes
Jennifer Fuentes is a wife, mother, teacher, mentor, & writer. But most importantly she is a daughter of the most High God! Since surrendering her life to Christ at the age of 20, Jesus has radically transformed her by healing, delivering and setting her free from the bondages of her past. This includes domestic violence, sexual assault, abuse, abandonment and paralyzing fear, just to name a few. Through Unveiling Ministries, the Lord has given her a voice to minister the gospel to help draw people into a deep intimate relationship with Christ through the teaching of His Word, mentoring the next generation and discipling those who desire to grow in their relationship with the Lord. She has a deep passion for the lost as well as those “lost” within the church. Pleasing the Lord and seeing others being radically transformed by His love is what drives her to continue His work until His return. She gladly considers herself a nobody, trying to tell everybody about somebody who can save anybody. Because if He did it for her, he can do it for you too!
Christina Landry
Christina’s freedom journey started 12 years ago when she commited her life to Yahuah. She is a wife, mom, sister, aunt, and gigi. She currently serves as a Training Coach in Celebrate Recovery and she is a deliverance minister in Set Free Live Free at her home church.

She maps out the fruits of different character defects that can lead to any hang-up, habit, or stronghold in a person’s life. The core of her personal interest in ministry is to help others understand their identity in Messiah. To raise up leaders who operate with the Kingdom expression of love, integrity, courage, and trust. She is married to a Godly Cajun Man who loves her fun size outgoing personality.
