Speaker: Paul CIOTTA
 

After a career in corporate communications, Paul answered the Lord’s call to full-time ministry, applying many of his writing and communication skills in service to Christ. In addition to counseling and ministering to men at the Colony of Mercy at America's Keswick, Paul preaches at local churches, conferences, and the Colony Chapel – wherever the Gospel needs to be preached. He has preached and taught through short-term missions with Developing Workers – most recently in Tanzania. He also facilitates grief ministries for the community and the Colony men and graduates, counsels and mentors pre-married and married couples and others, teaches Bible studies, and leads devotions for guests during Keswick’s conference season. A graduate of Seton Hall University and Liberty University's Rawling School of Divinity, he has served as an interim pastor and preacher, Bible teacher, elder, small group leader, counselor, and conference speaker. Paul was ordained through South Ridge Community Church in Clinton, NJ. His humor, humility, and servant’s heart bring application to God’s Biblical truths. After losing his spouse to pancreatic and liver cancer and trusting God and his faithfulness, he married Joyce; together they share five married children, a teenager, 11 grandchildren, and two dogs, as well as serve through Communicating with Purpose.

Our worship leader:   JOYCE CIOTTA

Joyce expresses her warm, gracious style and her gentle spirit through her multifaceted gifts of music, speaking, and encouragement, as she shares her faithfulness, hope, and her love for Jesus Christ. Her heart and commitment to worship through song and words give her a unique and Godly perspective to ministering to people. A graduate of Word of Life Bible Institute and Clarks Summit University, Joyce has led worship nationally and internationally in concerts, church services, large group settings, conferences, and other meeting venues. She has served America’s Keswick for more than 22 years as an Artist-In-Residence, and most recently as the Women’s Event Coordinator and an associate in Partner Care. Her vast and broad experience includes serving as a Christian school music teacher, homeschooling mom, creative visual designer, and video editor. Her listening ear and heart for people underscore her desire to see the Lord in all she does. Widowed from her ministry partner, Robert, she has learned to lean into her grief and allowed God to heal and redirect her steps. Rejoicing in God’s faithfulness, she married the love of her life, Paul, “for the rest of her life,” and they serve through their ministry with Communicating with Purpose.
