Meet My Family!

I'm married to my college sweetheart, Tim, who has been my sidekick in ministry all these years. We have three teen daughters and two cats we adopted during the pandemic.

Additionally, I'm an identical twin (my twin is married to Tim's cousin, and they have three daughters, too--the same ages as our girls!) 

I LOVE trying new foods, discovering local coffee shops, and feeling sunshine on my arms in winter. Our family enjoys reading, playing board games, and going to the beach.

Back to farm life and ministry on the Eastern Shore of Maryland! 

Our family returned the summer of 2024 after serving for close to six years on the Big Island (Hawaii).

I'm remembering how to cook with cast iron, enjoying late summer nights and fresh berries in season, and appreciating the beauty of the Chesapeake Bay waterways.

Our family is thrilled we're in the same time zone, and we look forward to gathering with them more regularly.

Then . . . 

Born and raised in Pennsylvania, I traveled as a college student with the ministry of First Priority to all fifty states and 183 cities on the “Whats Up America Tour” with the goal of “Looking at America Through the Eyes of Our Youth.” 

My observations and reflections of the spiritual state of young people contributed to my selecting full-time vocational ministry with Cru (formerly Campus Crusade for Christ) after graduation. As a global community, we are passionate about connecting people to Jesus.

Living recently where East meets West has given me a deeper appreciation of culture, diversity, spirituality, and theology.

Want to Begin a Relationship with God?

In his book, The Knowledge of the Holy, A.W. Tozer writes, "What comes into our mind when we think about God is the most important thing about us." 

I couldn't agree more! In a time when many of us feel powerless or paralyzed in a rapidly changing world, we can live empowered lives. We can experience the abundant life that Jesus promises (John 10:10).
