PASSIONS: Seeing kids and their parents growing closer to Christ. That I'm a leader with grace and compassion to everyone.
PHILOSOPHY OF MINISTRY & LIFE: My prayer has been that God would use me to my fullest potential for His glory. I've been blessed with my wonderful husband Doug, and together we have three teenage children, Derek, Brad and Christa. I serve part-time as the Children's Ministry Coordinator for Hope Covenant Church and part-time at Face to Face International. As a leader in children's ministry, I am passionate about winning lost kids for Jesus. Through upbeat music, drama, videos and teaching, children learn about the bible and have fun in the process. My goal is to create a safe place for kids to openly share and experience the unconditional love of Jesus. The greatest kids in the world walk through Hope Covenant's doors. I want Sunday to be the BEST day of every kid's week!
EDUCATION: Some college classes. Hoping to begin taking classes soon.
