Early life: Born April 30, 1957, in Medford, Oregon, to Christian parents, Fred and June Nelson. Her father was a “sought after” homebuilder and her mother was a caring childcare provider. Laurie is the youngest of the six children (2 deceased at a young age—Connie and Freddy), Bryan, Randy, (Carla, my sister in law), and Julie. All of whom worked in the construction company with her Dad or helped Momma Nelson. In the Nelson family, Bible devotions came before the start of the day, and at the end of the day. They enjoyed camping, hunting and going to the beach.
Family: Laurie met Samuel Rodriguez at Bethany Bible College in the late 1970s and they were married in 1978. They have three grown children; Natasha, is the oldest, married to Angel Perez. They have four delightful, mischievous children, Tatiana, Josiah, Elijah and Bella. Ashley, the middle child, is married to Michael Jappe. They have a 2 ½ year old little girl, Penelope Sophia and a 10-month old baby girl, Giselle Margauz! Sammy Rodriguez the youngest, is married to Chandler, they have a baby girl on the way! The three children were home schooled and brought up in the Church. Laurie and Sam enjoy ministering to couples, traveling, days off at the beach, watching the Niners, Warriors and SF Giants, hanging out with good friends and family, playing cards, discussing politics and being grandparents. Laurie is a true and faithful friend to many.
Ministry: Laurie committed her life to Jesus Christ at an early age and has been a Sunday school teacher, she has discipled young men and women, director of Moms groups, taught couples classes with her husband and wrote a Bible curriculum, Surfing the Word. Her love of the Word of God has caused her to dig deeper into that Word to take it to the nations. As a young couple Laurie and Sam, and their children completed a 3 month discipleship training school, Crossroads, with Youth With a Mission in Salem, Oregon, and completed a three months missions trip to Romania. Upon returning from Romania they came back to minister in Sacramento, California, for a five year commitment before going to the Dominican Republic as a missionary family to work at a private school, where she discipled groups of teenage girls and women. Sam and Laurie went to Nicaragua to help stop sex trafficking of minors, one of their greatest passions. She also ministers to her clients at the spa. Laurie is working on her second book, Goodbye Daddy, Hello Father God! Laurie is an encourager and prayer warrior who lives by faith and not by sight. (Written by Friends.)
