Groups & Care Coordinator

Hometown: Minocqua, Wi

I grew up going to church here and there. My faith really took flight right here at GBCC after we had children. I have been married for 33 years. We have 4 amazing kids. I have a degree in Accounting from Madison and also a degree as an Educational Interpreter from NTC in Wausau. 

What are some of your hobbies or activities you enjoy outside of work? I love to be outside. Riding my bike is one of my favorite things to do. My hobbies/activities I enjoy doing are so many. I like to create things. Spending time with my family is at the top of the list. 

What excites you most about your role here at the church? I love the fact that I can in some way, shape or form care for people and lead people to Jesus. Whether it’s by setting up a class, talking to people who need assistant on the phone, or  greeting people in the office. 

What gifts or passions do you feel called to use in serving God and His people? My gifts/passion I believe is to care for people. Especially for those in need.  After taking the Navigate class I learned I have the Mercy gift. I didn’t ask for it but it is who I am whether I took the class or not.  

Do you have a favorite Bible verse or passage? I have many favorites but one of them is Matthew 6:34. “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
