Yolanda Grier Creecy or Lady Yolanda as she is affectionately known throughout the congregation brings her warm and loving spirit to our church everyday where she serves as our Executive Administrator. Daily she shares her passion for ministry thru serving others.
Often the Olivet members say seeing her smiling face, feeling her warm heart or just hearing her up-beat voice can bless your day!
Our first Lady’s number one priority is to stand along side her husband and the Olivet Church Ministry as they grow mature disciples for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Lady Yolanda is not only a hearer of the word, she is a doer. She is a supportive and dedicated wife as well as a mother to her precious daughter’s Kennedy and Teresa.
She has become the driving force behind the Olivet Women’s Ministry. Spiritually, Lady Yolanda gives the proper oversight and vision to the Olivet Women Ministry’s leadership team.
However, she is happy and content whenever possible to remain behind the scenes, giving direction that positively positions the Olivet’s Women’s Ministry into a more powerful and prophetic role in the life of our church fellowship.
Together, with the help of her Sister’s in Christ they have produced several major events for the Women of Olivet. Always remaining focused on the goal to inspire every Woman to become mature Disciples of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Our Women’s Ministry is engaged in several activities that inspire and encourage them to give and love as Christ has commanded his disciples. These events include Prayer Breakfasts’, Bible Study Series and Seminars, Cancer Awareness Programs, Fayetteville Partners in Education as well as the legendary “High Tea and Hats”, which was featured in the Fayette Woman Magazine.
Lady Yolanda, a native of Atlanta, transitioned from her career as a real estate entrepreneur to devote herself to the ministry of Olivet full time. In addition to her work as Executive Administrator she also has creatively used her “gifts and skill set”, as our Church marketing manager, to brand the Olivet Ministry. She has partnered with her husband as a 21st century Ministry team and their passion is to grow disciples for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Lady Yolanda desires to share the Olivet Ministry, Message and Mission with the entire community, winning hearts “One Soul at a Time”. Our First Lady’s guiding light is to always remember the lessons of life taught by her granny. As a result they share the same life’s motto, “May the work that I have done, speak for me”.
