Lori Salierno
Enthusiasm is the one word that describes Lori Salierno. Her fresh approach and creative ideas provide practical tools for daily living. Not only is Lori an excellent communicator, but her enthusiastic style and sensitive spirit provide a combination that is rare in speakers. She is the founder and executive officer of Celebrate Life International, which equips people to improve their relationship with God and their friends and family. Her biblical, persuasive, and dynamic speaking challenges audiences to Christian discipleship. Her experiences from her student mission trips to Calcutta and developing countries provide a powerful framework for her public ministry.

CLI is already working with students in the public schools and together we are making a difference in the public educational system of the United States.

Our History

'In the Beginning'

 

In October 1996, Celebrate Life International, Inc. applied for and received nonprofit corporate status under the Georgia Nonprofit Corporation Code. In November, a body of individuals came together as an initial board of directors and ratified Lori Salierno as the Chief Executive Officer. Celebrate Life International also received tax exempt status under section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code as an organization described in section 501(c)(3).

Prior to working with Celebrate Life International, Ms. Salierno was a full time speaker, on the road an average of 15 days a month speaking to colleges & universities, youth conventions, music festivals, women's retreats, and church leaders. Her message was being heard. She realized that she had been given an incredible platform, a voice with a generation that is hungry to learn and enjoy life to its fullest.

Experience was one reason her message was being heard. She had developed her communications skills through education and hands-on work with youth in local churches. In 1983, Ms. Salierno was on staff at a local church in Indianapolis. She began accepting speaking engagements and tried to balance her work duties with her passion for people and the desire to motivate them through public address. Whenever she could she spoke at youth retreats and faith community meetings to sharpen her communication skills. Everywhere she spoke people affirmed her talent of motivational speaking. In 1992, she completed her Masters of Divinity from Fuller Theological Seminary. By 1994, Ms. Salierno was in Phoenix, again on staff at a local church. She had come to a crossroads. She could no longer do both local work and speak on the side. She began working with Ambassador's Speakers Bureau to speak full time and resigned her church position. She felt she could make a broader impact if she took her message on the road.

In 1995 Ms. Salierno published her first book, Designed for Excellence, written for Young People to motivate them to live above the level of mediocrity and get out of their comfort zones. Her newest book, When Roosters Crow, carries this same theme and specifically targets the need for accountability. This passion for students matched the goal of Celebrate Life International and confirmed Ms. Salierno’s desire to found and become the visionary for this youth-oriented leadership and character development organization. In its first year, Celebrate Life International reached over 150,000 students, women, and leaders encouraging them and challenging them to live lives of excellence and integrity. Through speaking and conferences, Celebrate Life International is training others how to catch this same vision and put it into action.

Besides motivational public speaking, Celebrate Life International is also involved in equipping Young People through workshops and conferences. Conferences provide the opportunity to train and equip students, women, and leaders with universal principles, practical skills, and relevant strategies to increase their influence in the world.  The organization has introduced a leadership and character development approach that targets public middle and high schools. This approach is based on CLI's own   Teach One to Lead One ™   philosophy which addresses the issues of empowering, energizing and equipping Students, Teachers and Parents to live principle based lives.

Teach One to Lead One

'EMPOWER - ENERGIZE - EQUIP'

 

Celebrate Life International's Teach One to Lead One ™ philosophy is focused on Leadership and Character formation in Young People in public schools throughout the United States.  Teaching practical leadership skills and virtues, we will develop Leaders of Integrity who will stand up for what is right and who will continuously strive to positively influence those around them.  Aware of the challenges that face our nation's students, public school educators, and parents, Celebrate Life International will partner with each of these groups to create a movement towards principle-based living. Through powerful training, practical materials, exciting presentations, hands-on activities and community service, Teach One to Lead One ™ will introduce universal principles that govern human life. Along with these principles, CLI will equip students with proven life skills and tools to create healthy habits, giving them the keys to significant living.

 

Celebrate Life International is truly committed to the development of this world's future leaders. We welcome the opportunity to discuss how your public schools can benefit from Teach One to Lead One ™ .  For more information, please contact the CLI Office.

 

This is the band that will be appearing at the conference. Because they are a local group I was not very successful at finding too much information on them. Below is what appeared on the conference’s web site. If you would like to check out the web sites I visited their addresses are below:

MUSIC MINISTRY

We are pleased to announce that Urban Street Level (USL) will be leading us in worship this year. This music ministry was "formed out of a desire to reach young people with the relevant message of love, hope and the acceptance of Jesus Christ through contemporary music and training." USL is local to the Washington DC area but they have performed at youth and adult conventions, retreats, assemblies, churches, etc. throughout the USA and Canada. In addition to their three core members, they travel with up to seven additional band members.
