About Ministry of Grace
Greetings in the name of the Lord. My name is Ann Snelling and I am a follower of Jesus Christ. God has placed a calling on my life to proclaim the truth of His Word and to encourage others in their walk with the Lord.
My family’s heritage is rich with people who have walked with the Lord and prayed for me. Those prayers took me to Cincinnati Christian University where I earned degrees in Bible and Piano Performance. My life has been a series of ‘highs’ and ‘lows’ that the Lord has used to teach me His ways. Many years of experience as a toastmaster have helped develop my speaking skills. My husband, Le, and I have been married for 50+ years. Together we relish life in the Pacific Northwest spent with family and friends.
My mission is to proclaim the Word of God.
About Ann
Ann is an evangelical, non-denominational speaker placing Christ at the center of her life and her ministry. Her goal is to touch hearts for Christ with the power of Christ by being transparent and to build disciples for Christ through clarifying His Word and His Ways. Ann’s hope is that God will use her to challenge others to seek Christ and as a result have a transforming effect upon their own families, marriages, work places, neighborhoods and in our world.
Ann has been speaking and encouraging others since she could talk. Her first audience was her dolls who patiently listened, long before she had anything of importance to say. Since those early years of playing speaker with her dolls, Ann has continued to learn and grow in the Lord.
When Ann and her husband walked through deep waters with their two adopted sons, Ann experienced God working in her life in a deep and significant way. She knew that He would do the same for others walking through their own challenges. When God opened the door for her to speak, Ann willingly began sharing her stories, insights, and understanding of scripture with other women.
Ann has a heart for women, the gift of encouragement, and the ability to share truths from God’s word in a simple style, using group interaction, props, and questions.

Ann and her husband have two sons, five grandchildren, and one great-grandchild, one cat, (and a partridge in a pear tree!).
