Overcome Team

Hi, my name is Dana Winn. I would like to share a snippet of my testimony and how God has called me.

I met Jesus on January 13, 1998, however, my life continued on a path of destruction. It wasn’t until 2007 that I discovered who Jesus was and how much He loved me. He gave me the verse Psalm 27:10 “For my father and mother have left me, but the Lord will take care of me”. Ever since, I have been on an amazing journey of getting to know my Jesus and healing. When I was able to fully surrender ALL of me to Him and allow Him to counsel and heal me, my life was radically transformed. My life was full of bad choices, alcohol, abortion, abuse of every kind, and the list goes on. My poor choices came with devastating consequences that grieved God’s heart. I wake up every day and have to ask Jesus to help me get through another day. He took my mess and is now using it for His message to minister and counsel His precious daughters.  

I understand today why God allowed me to walk through the consequences of my choices. He was preparing me to be where I am today, able to help and encourage other women that are broken and whose hearts that are hurting. 

I live to serve Jesus and am humbled, honored and blessed that He chooses to use me to help women along their journey of healing and to encourage them to surrender it ALL to the One who CAN, WILL and WANTS to make them well!

2 Corinthians 1:4 - He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us.

Hi, my name is Leah Patterson. I am a valiant warrior for the Lord Jesus Christ. I was raised in the fear of the Lord by my mom and dad. I started going my own way when I was a junior in high school, partying, drinking and smoking Marijuana. I graduated high school, went to college while dating my boyfriend who is now my husband. I became pregnant in the summer of 1999, this is where God stepped into my life and opened my eyes 👀, at that point I surrendered my life to my maker, my king and my Savior. He gave me this child, I knew I had to turn from my sin and pick up my cross daily and follow him. I am happy to be apart of OCM to help women who are hurting from circumstances out of their control and/or because of decisions they have made. The Lord is a restorer of the broken and we are all broken. So I am here to be about my fathers business and glorify HIM!

Luke 9:23 (NIV) …”whoever wants to be my discipline must Deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me.”

Hello. My name is Joanie Allen. I joined the team in January of 2024. I was the only child of my parents and my mother died when I was 7. My father quickly remarried and I felt unloved,  unwanted, and alone. My coping mechanism was to be a million different people. Pleasing people became my God. I felt the only way to prove myself worthy of living was to achieve and get things done. Although I didn't realize it all my  relationships were very Codependent with others. My life did change when I came to the Lord during the Jesus Movement. I really found joy and purpose like never before. I love the Lord and absolutely know He is Good. The last few years I have been used as an intercessor, children's ministry worker, and Parent Educator in a Pro-life Clinic. I have been so blessed to share God's goodness with these families who have chosen life. 

John 3:16-17 "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved."
