Hometown:I was raised in a little town called Lebanon, Maine. It's about 2 1/2 miles from the New Hampshire border, so we did more in New Hampshire than Maine!
On Staff Since:
My husband became Senior Pastor at New Hope on July 15th, 2002 (his first work day).
Interesting Fact:
I am currently writing a book! I am about 2/3 done with it. It is a Biblical Historical Novel about the romance between Rahab and Salmon. It is fiction based on fact. So far it's been about 90 percent research and 10 percent writing -- very challenging!
What's On My iPod:
The Message Bible and a lot of worship music. I'm not sure which artists exactly, because it needs to be re-charged.
On Office Wall:
My home is my office! I enjoy a French Country style of decorating.
Favorite Bible Passage:
"But then something happened! For it pleased God in His kindness to choose me and call me, even before I was born! What undeserved mercy! Then He revealed His Son to me so that I could proclaim the Good News about Jesus to the Gentiles..." Galatians 1:15,16

On my husbands side I have 8 sets of brother and sister in-laws and tons of nieces and nephews. I love my three kids -- Alexandria, Brendon, and Gabrielle!
In My Free Time:
I do A LOT of reading. I like scrapbooking, but it seems I never have time to haul it all out to work on it.
Unfinished Book On The Shelf:
"Twelve Ordinary Men" by John MacArthur and "The True Measure of a Woman" by Lisa Bevere
Mission Trips:
I have been to Mexico twice to work in the Colonias. As the kids get older, I hope to go on more! I am currently working with YWAM to plan a trip with our teens to Peru and we are all very excited about it!
Ministry Goals:
I very excited to be doing youth again. That's how I got my start in ministry with my husband, but haven't worked in that arena in over a decade. A lot has changed in a decade!!! It is very challenging and I'm having fun. If you want to know my goal, check out our STRONG Youth Ministries section, it's all there!
