I love being part of Front Range Christian School because I am surrounded by a community of believers. It is fun to serve together and share our faith with the children and families that God puts in our paths.
Five books, other than the Bible, that have impacted my faith or career.
- Hudson Taylor’s Spiritual Secret by Dr. and Mrs. Howard Taylor
- Paul: A man of grit and grace by Charles Swindoll
- Hind’s Feet on High Places by Hannah Hurnard
- Better Homes and Gardens New Complete Guide to Gardening
- Friends Go Adventuring by Helme Heine
When I am not at Front Range I enjoy seeing my mom on Sundays, caring for my grandson, serving on the Mission Committee at Church, teaching Children’s Sunday School, discipling new believers and being outside.
One of the greatest joys in my life has been to serve and lead mission trips to China, Taiwan, and India. Fulfilling the “great commission” is my heart’s desire whether serving locally or internationally.
