Earlina Gilford-Weaver is the founder of Shekinah Glory Outreach Ministry and Shekinah Glory Outreach / 2Real4U Drama Productions. She is working on numerous projects all at once, such as her books and stage plays and exciting drama series. This is her passion. Currently residing in Winston Salem, North Carolina, and originally from Youngstown, Ohio, Mrs. Gilford-Weaver started her career as a motivational speaker in 1997 after a long illness. After battling cancer and strokes and being in a three-month coma, she found her true calling in helping others with her gifts. In 2008 she married her soul mate, Richard A. Weaver, and they both worked on her life story, “Who Will Wipe My Tears Away?” As a team, Mr. Weaver drew the cover, and Earlina told her breathtaking testimony that came out in 2010. She later put it in 2011 as a gospel stage play, where it sold out and left a lot of people free from holding in the abuse they endured. In 2013 Earlina worked side by side David L. Walker to make this story a documentary feature film, “Angry Tears,” filmed by David L. Walker from Walk Star Production out of Warren, Ohio. After three books, five stage plays, and a movie, Earlina is using her God-given gifts and talent to be a blessing to encourage others that it is not too late to start your dreams. With twenty casts, she is putting together a very positive sitcom that will encourage others to hope and have a better future. She was quickly compelled to go behind the scenes of her work rather than to be in the center of it all. She found writing much more rewarding, being a full-time caregiver to her firstborn granddaughter with autism but being a true dedicated lover of lost souls. She is a two-time award honoree of the Peach Theatre Playwrights Ball, 2014 and 2015, and was given a literary award for the best inspirational story line in the She Writes BET Award in 2014. She truly takes great love, compassion, and pride in her work. Her works are top quality. Many are intense dramas about vital issues in today’s world that many do not like to touch on, such as, adult and teen suicide, homelessness, faith, hope, environmental issues, sexual, physical, and mental abuse, crime, and many other important issues. Mrs. Gilford-Weaver has a strong social conscience that is reflected in her work. She has gained a lot of praise in the works she has put out so far on the productions below: Who’ Will Wipe My Tears Away? Is It Really My Closet? A Call Too Late! Busted and Disgusted! Trapped! Was It Really God? Production has and is a going to be a force to be reckoned with in the highly competitive world of film. Through the years, having three major stokes, cancer, nervous breakdown, losing a lung being on oxygen from time to time, a need of two total knee replacements, from a three month coma, being in a wheelchair, and other challenges that slowed her down, she focused by getting back up and driving to have faith and believe she will and has overcame any obstacles to make a difference. Still having side effects from it all has not stopped her from helping others overcome wanting to make a difference in this world. The challenge is to press by every means. Working hard, gathering and working with tremendous, phenomenal, talented up-and-rising casts, and production team talking with good people that know the struggle and have arise with this. “We don’t do ordinary, we don’t do easy, we will work hard and long, and will release details as it become available. And we will offer you unforgettable projects.” Her dream is to meet Ms. Pamala Hall of Lionhawk Productions and give her her vision and hug. It will allow her to know she can accomplish anything, including the dreams of her cast and production team! Looking for a film and network production company that will take on her next project to help make a difference in the world today.
