BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH
Nancy Lucas, contributing author to “Everyday Grace, Everyday Miracle” by Lorna Owens, and author of five books waiting to be published, lives in the Florida Keys with her husband and children. Her inspirational speech offerings come from life experiences and material gathered for each of her books. She organizes a playgroup for more than 50 families, is a freelance writer, and enjoys being outdoors. Lucas accepted Christ in 1999 and has been a member of Island Community Church in Islamorada ever since.

RAVE REVIEWS
“The audience gained valuable tools to use for promotion as a result of Nancy’s practical advice. She related to them in a positive manner. Nancy is a true ‘friend of youth’ and leader in our community.”
~ Kimberly Coldicott
Monroe County Fla. 4-H Program Coordinator

“Nancy provided a professional, up-beat and audience-interactive finale to our American Christian Writers’ One-day Workshop. Fielding questions from prospective writers to a panel of nine talkative author/teachers, she managed time-sensitive, microphone passing with relaxed diplomacy. No one knew I had tapped her for the moderator job shortly before the attendees entered the auditorium!”
~ Lynne Cooper Sitton
Past President of the Broward County Florida Chapter of the American Christian Writers’ Association


“Nancy successfully condensed the basics of marketing and writing into a workshop for teens that taught them the fundamentals in a way that was dynamic and easy to understand. She did so with wit and frankness youth crave but do not often receive in a traditional classroom. I would recommend her to any youth group who wanted to learn about this important topic.”
~ Michele Sutter, District Prevention Coordinator
Monroe Youth Challenge Program

“Nancy, I just wanted to drop a note to you to express how impressed an inspired I am because of your leadership in the puppet ministries. I know you have made a huge impact on the kids who participated and I am sure you touched people last night in the crowd.”
~ Peter Ihrig, Vice President
