The Visionary
Rev. Valerie S. Pearson is a preacher, teacher, author and founder of A Remarkable Woman Ministry. Her life has been a journey guided by the Lord; and as she has traveled through time she has learned many valuable lessons and gained wisdom that she has packaged together to share with other women through A Remarkable Woman Ministry. Through her ministry and book, A Remarkable Woman, Discovering the Authentic You!, God has allowed many women to be transformed, and to know who they are in Christ, while loving their true authenticity.
In February 2011, God led Rev. Pearson to take a tremendous leap of faith in pursuing her ministry full-time. She formed a nonprofit entity, The Center for Remarkable Women, Inc., with a mission to empower women and girls with the life tools necessary to live enriched and abundant lives. This is a life dream for Rev. Pearson that she pursues with zeal and enthusiasm.
Prior to answering the call to pursue her ministry full-time, Rev. Pearson served for twelve years as the Chief of Ministry Staff at the New Psalmist Baptist Church in Baltimore, Maryland under the tutelage of Bishop Walter S. Thomas, Sr., where she managed a staff of nine full time ministers/lay persons and more than 80 ministries. She has a wealth of knowledge in church management and ministry development. Rev. Pearson is a sought after conference speaker, who conducts leadership training for church staff, associate ministers, and ministry leaders. She also presents workshops and seminars to women.

The Butterfly
 |
The transformation of a caterpillar into a butterfly is symbolic of the journey of a remarkable woman. This journey is life changing. Even though it is one of great sacrifice and struggle the end result is breath-taking. Just as the butterfly struggles inside the cocoon to become, you too will struggle on this journey. But after the struggle, a beautiful one of a kind “remarkable woman” emerges ready to soar.
After your remarkable journey, every time you see a butterfly you will smile at one of God's great wonders. After your journey, every time you look in the mirror you will smile at a newly transformed you! There is a blessing in store for you. |

My Transformation
  Have you ever had a desire for a makeover? I enjoy the makeover reality shows with the dull, boring and unexciting before photo and then the all “glammed-up” photo after the new make-up, hair style and shopping trip. A new face, hair and dress and then life is all better. But oh, if life were really that simple! If you want the results of the after photo but you want more than a new face, hair and dress, this remarkable woman journey is just for you. |
I remember the woman in my before shot. She was stuck in a place filled with painful disappointments that were never reconciled, low self-esteem and general malaise about life. When I took the remarkable woman journey, I had to struggle inside my cocoon to face the woman in the before shoot and then use the Word of God to help me realize who I really was. Through the Word of God, I realized that I am fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), that he has endowed me with splendor (Isaiah 55:5) and that I was made a little lower than the angels (Psalm 8:5). I allowed Him to heal my past hurts and then to take to heart the scripture, I am the head and not the tail (Deuteronomy 28:13). God has been the catalyst for my transformation and from the cocoon came a renewed, better, brighter, stronger, and encouraged person, ready to fly. And yes, there was fresh make-up, hair and new dress too! But the outer makeover was minuscule when compared to the great thing that God did to the inner me. |
