Guest Speaker Bio:

JUDI MERRIAM

​​

Judi Merriam makes her home in both her beloved Adirondack Mountains and the historic Mohawk Valley. She loves her roles as wife, mother, singer, actor, director, speaker, and writer. She regularly sings and speaks, for both Christian and secular organizations and events, across New York State and the Northeast, as well as other areas of our beautiful country. She has also played an extensive number of leading roles and directed for theater companies throughout the Capital District. Judi is a first-time author with her memoir, "Empty Shoes by the Door," which was a number one new release on Amazon when it launched in 2022. When she has time, Judi enjoys hiking, reading, sewing, and too many other interests to list here. She is presently working through courses to become a Certified Mental Health Coach First Responder through Light University. Judi loves spending time with her most favorite people on earth - husband, Brian, and her two living children, Tyler and Kalina. She is continually grateful for the sustaining grace of God in her life as she walks through the messiness of living in this very broken world. It is Judi's heart's desire to shine a light of hope into the lives of those who struggle and grieve, especially those who've lost a child to death.
