Dawn Okpisz

"I will sing of the Lord's great love forever!"  Psalm 89:1

Rejoicing in the saving grace of Jesus, Dawn and her husband have been blessed with 33 years of ministry, 30 years of marriage, and 27 years in the parish.  Thankful to have raised their children in Illinois for 25 of those years, now grown and married, they are soon to have two grandchildren.

Where Dawn has lived…

Pennsylvania, Texas, Kansas, Missouri, Michigan, Iowa, New York, Illinois, & California. She calls herself a “Texakanissourian.”

Life and Ministry...

As a singer, Dawn is grateful that throughout the course of her life, she has experienced the rescuing, life-saving, and transforming love of God.  She counts it a blessing to have also witnessed God’s intervention in the lives of countless others. Dawn has shared God's love through music, both within the church and in other venues, including professional recording, radio interviews, private lessons, worship leading at conferences and retreats, public speaking, leadership training, and discipleship for worshippers of all ages. Having experienced the love of her Heavenly Father, she lives to see people transformed by Christ's death and resurrection too! "Oh taste and see that the LORD is good!" Psalm 34:8.

Dawn is a worshipper who loves Jesus, and a gifted musician and songwriter.  She loves to meditate, sing, apply, and pray God’s Word.  In relating with others, she has been described as having a compassionate, mother’s heart.

Dawn’s life verses are: Romans 8:1, there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus; Romans 8:28, God is working all things together for the good of those who love Him; 1 Samuel 16:7, God cares most about the heart; Colossians 1:27, Christ in you is the hope of glory; Exodus 14:14, the Lord will fight for you, you only need to be still; and Galatians 6:4, test your own actions, and do not compare yourself to others.

Dawn’s life experiences have developed a compassion for those displaced from their families, either temporarily or long-term, as well as a sensitivity to people who have relocated to new areas or are needing to make new friends.  

Music, Children, and Essential Oils...

As a singer and musician, she has also been on a health journey that included a lengthy struggle, 10 year remission, and difficult relapse.  While healing, Dawn has rested in the promise of Romans 8:28, which assures that no pain is wasted, but God turns it around for the good of those who love Him and have been called according to His purpose, as well as Galatians 6:4 which says not to make comparisons with others, an important verse for anyone on a healing journey.

Dawn's introduction into Essential Oils began when her daughter was a baby, because she often looked to natural options.  A greater catalyst was after news from her doctor (including instructions to use Essential Oils) when a friend who was not involved in business shared a bottle doTERRA Essential Oil with her.  As a Christian, Dawn asked trusted friends to pray for her, and used the recommended oil protocol until it improved. 

Dawn has been using doTERRA Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils and Supplements ever since.  This is not only because Essential Oils are beneficial to health, but also because of doTERRA's ongoing efforts to fight Human Trafficking as well as support for survivors. 

Dawn’s hobbies...

Bird-watching, leisurely walks by the river, scenic drives, dates with her husband, listening to her kids share stories, family vacations, holiday gatherings, and visiting with friends who do not live nearby. Dawn was actively involved with Moms In Touch/Moms In Prayer for 15 years.
