She has always had a heart to minister to outcasts and those who are unloved, and God gave her a dream to have a camp one day where young people would be loved and nurtured. This led her to attend Word of Life Bible Institute where she was able to learn God's word and put it into practice by serving in the youth camps. Upon graduation, she ministered with Youth for Christ in the detention centers and served as a houseparent for the Christian Life Home for pregnant unwed girls. She has two sons who she homeschooled until she enrolled in nursing school in 2003. She graduated in 2007 and became a foster mom in 2011 after her sons graduated and went off to Word of Life Bible Institute. She volunteered at Royal Family Kids Camp for foster youth as their nurse in 2015 and continued as a volunteer with Teenworks mentoring program. In 2016, God led her to be the Founder and Director of the REACH Mentoring Ministry for foster and at-risk young people, where she has coordinated and led events at children's homes, began mentoring clubs in the public schools, and has also led summer camps since 2021. She is currently working as a school nurse, which she absolutely loves and provides her ministry opportunities every day. She is continually striving to be a conduit of love to everyone she encounters. Susan has been happily married to Jay Stem for the past four and a half years. God has truly blessed her with two wonderful sons, Benjamin and John-Mark, daughter-in-law Anna, and a sweet, adorable granddaughter, Abigail, who brings pure delight to her life. She also loves to read, write, participate, and lead Bible studies, and serve at her church. She enjoys spending time with her family and friends, being adventurous and checking things off on her bucket list. Most of all, Susan loves Jesus, and is always eager to share all the ways God has lavishly loved and provided for her through the years. She has many more God stories to share and is continuing to write them down for volumes to come.view less
