Guest Speaker: Margie McClure

Margie McClure enjoys identifying herself as wife of pastor, teacher and radio speaker John C. McClure. Their marriage of 33 years is a wellspring of joy for both of them in their ministries at the Vineyard of Newport Beach, CA and radio program 'The Word & the Spirit'. Margie is administrator of the radio program as well as executive pastor of the Vineyard Newport.

Margie loves to write and has a number of published poems, books, and articles on marriage, family and spiritual growth issues. She is also in demand as a conference speaker.

Margie's greatest passion other than Jesus and her husband is her family. She and John have six children and six grandchildren. They have built close family relationships and are privileged to have all of their children serving with them in the ministry of Vineyard Newport.
