Background: (13 years of motherhood!) Six years in education, 2 1/2 years as a children's director

My passion at Orchard Hills: My passion is to see children and families light up with the love of Jesus!

Favorite illustration of a biblical truth: Psalm 23, "The Lord is my Shepherd..." God cares about all aspects of our lives and has provided his presence to comfort us even in uncomfortable surroundings. As a children's director and mother of four, I often feel like a shepherd gathering the lambs who are going all over the place! It is a wonderful reminder of how God gathers us and leads us.
