Hello Friends!<\/p>\n
Since I recently took on the responsibilities of Lay Leader, I thought I\u2019d \u201cintroduce\u201d myself as I begin my newest role in service to each of you.<\/p>\n
I accepted Christ in my life at around the age of 10 (give or take a few years) while at church with a friend and her family.\u00a0 However, it wasn\u2019t until my 30\u2019s that I had an adult encounter with the Lord which changed the course of my life.\u00a0 The Holy Spirit has since taught me through God\u2019s word, mentors, teachers, seminars, Bible studies, listening to radio pastors (my favorite is Chuck Swindoll of Insight for Living), and through living life itself.<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t have a college degree in ministry.\u00a0 But in 1 Peter 4:10-11 we are told that God gives us spiritual gifts and to use them well to serve one another \u2013 all to bring glory to God through Jesus Christ. Through the gifts I was given, I serve you.<\/p>\n
What I have to offer you is a true love of God and His Word and approximately 30 years of ministry in the church.\u00a0 My \u201cresume\u201d includes participating in mini church services at a Salvation Army homeless shelter (usually doing the devotional); teaching teen, adult, and women\u2019s Bible studies; mentoring; preaching to fill-in for pastors; and assisting in various other ways since that amazing day when God woke me up.\u00a0 My passion is to \u201cequip the saints\u201d through the living, relevant Word of God.<\/p>\n
Please feel free to contact me if I can serve you in some manner, if you have ideas to share, suggestions to make, or just to chat!\u00a0 I work full time but, if I can\u2019t pick up a call, please leave a voice mail, text me, email me, or catch me on a Sunday.<\/p>\n
Your servant,<\/p>\n
