Testimonials
It was our privilege and pleasure to have Dr. Bernice Patterson speak at St. Michael Lutheran Church on a number of occasions. She gave a presentation for continuing education for our Stephen Ministers during the pandemic, and she also partnered with me in teaching a Bible class on racial relations and reconciliation. She is a very winsome and engaging speaker who is knowledgeable, approachable, and articulate. We were blessed to hear what she had to say and we benefited greatly from her insights.

Dr. Patterson's expertise, coupled with her engaging delivery style, captivated our audience and fostered a sense of renewed energy and purpose among our staff.

Dr. Patterson agreed to speak to my Practice Management class of Masters and Doctoral Counseling and Psychology students. Since almost all of my students were BIPOC I asked her to speak about her experiences as a woman of color owning and operating her own business, lessons she's learned along the way, and advice she had for them to increase their chances of success in owning their own business. Dr. Patterson was an amazing speaker! She was engaging, knowledgeable, and was able to hold their attention for the entire time she was speaking. She was careful to answer every question she was asked, she was professional and personable. The class enjoyed her talk a lot. I would definitely recommend Dr. Patterson as a speaker!
