that I may know how to sustain with a word him who is
weary.”

God has colled them to sereve in the body of Christ in the areas of teaching, administation and encouragement.
I’ve been married to my best friend, Lenny, for 25 years. We have three amazing adult children, one wonderful son-in-law, and six adorable furbabies!
I had the privilege of homeschooling for 16 years, but in 2024 I fulfilled my dream of completing my college degree, graduating from Liberty University with a Bachelor's in Religion with an emphasis in Apologetics.
When I'm off the clock, you’ll find me working through my ever-growing to-read list, exercising, and remaining a faithful Dallas Cowboys fan—which has taught me patience, endurance, and unwavering hope year after year
Though we now call South Texas home, I was born and raised in the Midwest and still consider Kansas my true home on this side of heaven. I’m grateful for the opportunity to serve the people of Trinity Baptist Church as their secretary and consider it a privilege to be part of what God is doing here.
