Fourth grade was a big year in my life!  I met Jesus in the midst of Sunday School one day, and at elementary school, I was introduced to my future husband, Dan, whom I married right after college.  We left Michigan to pursue our careers which took us from Chicago to Indianapolis, and in the midst of it all, our world was flipped upside down with an infertility diagnosis.  Ultimately, that led us on the journey of adoption.  Turns out it was exactly where we were supposed to be, as it was on that journey that Jesus completely re-captured both our hearts.  We were blessed with the miracle of our first son through the gift of adoption, and around that same time, after 17 years in a corporate setting, the Lord firmly closed a door and called us into the ministry of Hospitality, leading us to purchase a bed and breakfast here in Ludington, and to Radiant Church.  As we were settling into life here, we were overjoyed to welcome another miracle, our second son, to our family!  I have a heart for kids, and I have such joy watching them learn about and fall in love with Jesus and build their relationship with Him!  I also enjoy serving in our Prayer Ministry and mentoring kids at our local high school.  I love strong coffee, hiking, curling, reading, and making my boy’s belly laugh.  

Dan and I are grateful to be planted here and love serving His people, our community, and Radiant Church in whatever way He calls us.
