Our Story
This Wasn't Our Idea.
God gave us a burden for Lansing before we had a name - to help bring Lansing back together again, through Unity, Love, and Prayer. T.L.C.W.E. is our yes to that calling.
The Lansing Collective Worship Encounter (T.L.C.W.E.) is a multi-generational gospel worship collective assembled in Lansing, Michigan, built on three core principles: Unity, Love, and Prayer.
On April 12, 2024, that vision became reality during our very first official worship encounter. What began as a gathering became something greater - a movement centered on authentic worship, spiritual connection, and community impact.
Since that founding moment, T.L.C.W.E. has grown through worship encounters, church partnerships, festival appearances, and ministry opportunities throughout Lansing and beyond. We are not just individuals sharing a stage.
We are a team on assignment.
T.L.C.W.E. (The Lansing Collective Worship Encounter) is an interchurch Christian worship movement based in Lansing, Michigan. We host city-wide worship nights, revival encounters, and prayer gatherings, including signature events like The Release and Worship Encounter, uniting believers across denominations and church lines. We collaborate with area ministries including Heaven In Motion Ministry and have performed at community events including Bless Fest Lansing. Our vision is to help bring Lansing back together again, through Unity, Love, and Prayer.
Unity
One sound. One purpose. One team.
Love
The foundation of all we do.
Prayer
The atmosphere we carry into every room.

ITNJ (In The Name of Jesus) Photography was born when I realized that photography is meant to glorify God through His creation. Each picture captures the beauty of something or someone that God created.
I am honored to capture the beauty, the pain, and everything in between.
