Nancy McDaniel, Prayer DirectorNancy McDaniel has been part of Aglow International since 1982 when she first joined the Rancho Cucamonga Evening Aglow Lighthouse. In Aglow she found a “home” that provided rich relationships, challenging teaching, deep worship encounters and ample opportunity to grow spiritually. Nancy served Aglow in Southern California on both Local and Area Teams and as State Prayer Coordinator.
Nancy has a full background in education, with degrees in Music Education and Music Theory and Composition. After teaching multiple grade levels and serving in church administration, she joined the Headquarters staff as Global Prayer Director in 1999. Since that time, she has had the joy of visiting over 50 nations to pray and bring encouragement to the Aglow family.
In addition to her role as an intercessor, Nancy is a mobilizer of people in prayer. She believes every believer has a portion or place as an intercessor and desires to see everyone grow from victory to victory as champions of prayer. She is a strategist who understands that strategies must originate with Holy Spirit and be birthed in the Spirit - not by might, not by power, but by His Spirit. As a leader, she prioritizes encouraging and developing the potential in others. Rather than focusing on building programs, she seeks to build people, knowing that people together with the power of the Holy Spirit will carry out the glorious work of the Kingdom.
To do this, she tries to impart the vision of Aglow and Aglow’s prophetic words and promises to intercessors in a meaningful way. She views Aglow prayer worldwide as a Global House of Prayer - a house not made by hands - a house that is built of people worldwide praying together for the fullness of God's Kingdom in every nation.

Nancy is married to Dave McDaniel, a retired educator and football coach. Dave also serves Aglow International as Director of Men of Issachar.
