I have been a Christian for many years and love serving the Lord by serving others. In my roles as teacher, mentor, trainer, and coach, I find that sharing the Biblical principles for living often help people to see that God has a plan for their lives. When we discover Gods plan and then embrace that plan, our lives change quickly. The path of my life has been one of inspiration and seeking after the full will of God. Changes directed by his sovereign plans have made me stronger and allowed me to gain a wealth of experiences and wisdom that I freely share with others. This road has not always been easy, but it is fulfilling. God has remained faithful to me and it is my desire to remain faithful to his calling.
My husband, Carl, is the love of my life and partner. We are raising two daughters, Kristen (21) and Ashley (15). As parents, we committed our children to the Lord at an early age, trained them to be workers in the church, and encouraged a lifestyle committed to godly values. Carl is an administrator (CIO) in our local church, Hope Christian Church, where we both serve in various roles.
Jeremiah 29:11 12 ; 11 For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you.
