Personal Statements:
God has created each of us in His image and so I see my role as one in which I hold space for hope in someone’s life as they are struggling with pain that life brings. It is a gift to join with someone who is hurting and walk alongside them. God has given each of us a desire for connectedness and I believed that healing can come through that connectedness. I pray that each person I work with sees themselves as valuable and capable of hope and change.
I have been married for 24 years and have four children ranging from teens to adults. I love reading, genealogy, jigsaw puzzles, and serving others.
