I am a proud wife and mother and child of God. I serve Niantic Community Church as the full-time Director of Religious Education and Youth Ministies. The church building is just a couple blocks from Long Island Sound so its quite a beautiful place. Living in New England is a fun new adventure being that I am a Cheesehead.
Even with the ups and downs of this journey, I cannot complain and I am excited to see what each new day brings. God is good.
Church Involvement: Member
Leadership Involvement: Pastoral staff (senior, associate, assistant, youth, music, admin, etc.)
Church Interests: Christian Education, Youth group, Bible studies, Missions
I am interested in meeting people who live their faith fearlessly and without apologies no matter what that faith is!!!! And I am really interested in people who do that with respect and tolerance for others.
