About:
My husband Greg and I have had 7 of our kids come through Living Word! Our 8th is enjoying the glories of Heaven and we are blessed to know that we will see her again. My passion is the performing arts! I have been involved with the arts for over 30 years. I also love being a part of a worship team with Greg and our sons Ethan and Aidan at our home church, St Paul Grafton.
Favorite Bible Verse:
Psalm 16:8
I keep my eyes always on the Lord. With Him at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
Why send students to Living Word?
When my daughter went to be with Jesus, the Living Word community rose up and surrounded our other children in their time of need. In the early morning hours that followed and in the continuing days/weeks/months to come, the cloud of witnesses surrounded them in prayer and comfort. The LW choir sang beautiful, comforting songs at the funeral while our son's entire LW basketball team came to support their teammate and many other students and staff attended. They held our children and cried with them and prayed with them and gave comfort in the knowledge that Zoe was in heaven and that we all would see her again. This is Christ's love. This is what Living Word is. This is what makes Living Word different. This is much more than textbooks and fancy buildings. This is why all of my children have been blessed to be able to attend Living Word.
