Teri Annti

Choir Director and Assistant Preschool Director

Teri is first and foremost a very proud mother of four daughters ranging from 5 to 30 years old! She has been fostering since she was 26 and her 5 year old Sincerity is adopted out of foster care. Although child development, children’s ministry, and advocacy have been her main focus in life, music has been her source of income since she was 16. Her career started in Las Vegas and brought her back to San Diego as a church choir director, piano, voice and songwriting instructor, and a worship leader. In addition to music, she spent ten years as the family and women’s retreat coordinator, guest services manager and drama director at the Pine Valley Bible Conference Center. Most recently she has begun to homeschool her youngest and continue with foster care in addition to leading worship, teaching and speaking whenever invited. Teri joined the staff at Pilgrim in December 2019 as the Choir Director and Assistant Preschool Director.
