I was also a part of a graduate program at Grand Rapids Theological Seminary. In addition I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Social Studies Secondary Education from Crown College, St. Boni, Minnesota. Currently I am licensed as a social studies teacher in Ohio. I also attended Vennard College for my undergraduate Bible training. I have served in various teaching capacities (Christian and non-Christian) both overseas in S. Korea and Mongolia, as well as in intercity Detroit, and the more rural areas of Ohio where I now live. I have traveled extensively, including 20 countries, and most of provincial Canada and the majority of the 50 United States.
I was raised in a pastor's home where money did not always abound, yet personal sacrifice was ingrained in me at an early age. My siblings and I were exposed to intercity rescue missions, Indian Reservations, and the lower income homes which housed the children on our church bus route. As an adult I received complete exposure to third world countries where needs were more than overwhelming. Even though I had grown up in a home where money was not plentiful, we always looked nice and never went hungry. I began to realize it was all about the choices we who call ourselves Christians make each and every day.
After living overseas in sub-par conditions, and constantly visualizing the astounding needs of others, God began to impress upon me the understanding of what God meant by denying one's self in order to further the cause of Christ. When I moved back to the USA I began to see how much we have and what we could do to reach the needs of the world both spiritually and physically instead of indulging in our own desires daily. God began to show us as a couple how to get our own house in order as well as giving us many other insights to help ourselves and others.
My husband and I currently live in Ohio with our two children. We are actively involved in our local church in the areas of missions and outreach both here and abroad. We spend much of our free time generating extra income to send to overseas ministries where the needs are great and the resources are extremely limited.view less
