  • Was a Child Care Worker in her previous life
  • Has been in ministry for 30 years (Calgary and Okotoks/De Winton/Turner Valley)

  • Has taken four Mission Teams to Nicaragua, Africa (Kenya and Namibia) and the Dominican Republic
  • Has gone to Turkey, Greece, India, Israel for educational travel
  • Lives with her cat Jasmine in the beautiful town of Black Diamond (and doesn’t miss the city)

  • Plays guitar and ukulele and piano (all nominally) and has sung in many choirs
  • Still doesn’t know what she wants to be when she grows up but is enjoying the adventure of exploring possibilities
