My husband Steve and I enjoy living in Millcreek Township with our grown daughter Ellen and our miniature dachshunds Alfie and Sassy.  Even though our son Craig lives 3 hours away, we enjoy visiting with him as often as possible.

I love to read, quilt, knit, crochet and needlework of all kinds.  My newest endeavor is weaving on an 8-harness loom.  History is a passion of mine, particularly church history, the Civil War and America in the 1930’s and 1940’s.  My greatest joys in ministry are preaching, teaching and sharing the journey of faith with others as they grow closer to God through Jesus Christ and the help of the Holy Spirit.

It is a delight to serve as pastor of Christ United Methodist Church, a community of faith that is filled with many generous and caring people.  A very mission-minded church, we are always seeking new ways to reach out to the community and world in caring ways. 

Please look around our website to learn a little more about us.  Or better yet, come and visit us on Sunday morning at one of our worship services, 8:15 AM or 10:45 AM.  If you have any questions, contact me at 833-6398 or email me anytime!

My husband, John, and I have three children, Lynnea Mae, Joseph David, and Sophia Hope. We joined Christ Church in June 2004 and have come to love our church family. My husband and I enjoy cooking, family time, outdoor fun, and laughing with our children. We also enjoy our dog Marcy, although when she sneaks out the door we may not express it well!

As Director of both Children's Ministry and the Preschool I enjoy sharing in the innocence of children. Children are my passion and I am happy to be entrusted in caring for them and watching each one glow with excitement as they learn how much Jesus loves them. In the Preschool I am also blessed with the joy of watching little ones begin their first school experience. It is our goal to not only prepare children acedemicaly for grade school but socially, emotionally, and spiritually.

If you have any questions about our Children's Ministry program, feel free to drop me an email or look for me on Sunday mornings.

If you have questions about the Preschool Program, call me at 838-8918 or drop me an email.

Confessing Jesus Freak,

together. 

My husband Bob and I have a grown daughter and live in Erie with our dog, Anneliese. We are members of St. Joseph Bread of Life Community. I enjoy camping, reading, needlework, fishing, gardening, and puzzles. I especially love spending time with my family.
