My name is Theresa Tete Togba-Witherspoon. I am an educator preparing young children for the future. I grew up in Liberia and attended the St. Augustine Episcopal Church in Bardnersville. I grew up in a family of educators and priests. As I grew up and saw education and religious activities practiced in my home, I knew being an educator and working in God’s house were my callings. My passion working with young children and working in the house of God has been evident in my involvement in the school as a teacher,and my church as a choir member and the women’s President. I have the opportunity to serve as Secretary General for the Liberian Episcopal Community USA, LECUSA-MN Chapter from 2016 to present. Through these experiences, I have learned to interact with diverse group of people which has sharpened and increased my ability to relate to others. I have also had the opportunity to record meetings minutes and send out relevant communications to members.

It’s my prayer and hope that I can be of help to the Liberian Episcopal Community USA. Let us remember that Unity is our Strength, and together we can make it.
