I fell in love with Jesus as a child as my parents lovingly showed me who God is. At four years old, I discovered my love for singing and worship. In my teenage years, I went through a season of testing in my faith. God showed me His unconditional love for me, and I recommitted my life to Him. I began to see God was calling me to lead worship and serve in the church. Despite experiencing hurt in my church at a young age, God gave me a passion for gathering believers. I knew the Holy Spirit was speaking to me that church was going to be messy sometimes, but He loves people, and He would be with me.
I married Keith, my handsome, bold, and daring husband, in 2003. We began our journey of married life and ministry together that same year. We have three incredible kids Caleb, Levi, and Lyndsay. They are each truly gifts and have brought us so much joy. I have the privilege of homeschooling them.
We moved to Holland, MI in April 2021 to join the staff here. We moved to MI in 2016 but are originally from North Carolina. I am thankful for the peace of God knowing I am right where He has called me to be. Words can't begin to express the gratitude in my heart for the way God has surrounded me with incredible people who love God, love each other (and act like it), and are living around the mission of making disciples!
