I grew up in a small country town in Pennsylvania in the US and each week our bus driver would drop us off at a neighborhood home to attend a Good News Club. Each week I would hear of God’s love and salvation through two faithful teachers. One week when I was 10 years old, I accepted Christ as my Savior.
When I was 12 years old, I had opportunity to be a helper at the Vacation Bible School at my home church. It was here that I quickly realized my love to work with children and teach them the gospel. After attending university, I was an elementary school teacher for several years. I volunteered with Child Evangelism Fellowship (CEF) during the summers. From these experiences and mentoring leaders, the Lord called me to serve Him with Child Evangelism Fellowship full time.
My Current Role at CEF Canada
I serve as the Education and Literature director for the North America/ Caribbean Region. I oversee the training programs, train teachers and leaders, and equip and support teacher trainers in the 26 countries in the Caribbean. As Literature director I work with translation and printing of the literature for French, Dutch, Creole, and Papiamento.
