I started attending The Bridge in 2013 with my husband and our two children. I was hired as the Children’s Ministry Pastor in January of 2015. I now provide pastoral leadership for all of Family Ministry in shepherding our Weekday Preschool, Children’s, and Student Ministries.
I’m grateful to be a part of the mission here at The Bridge. Making Jesus known in the lives of his children is an incredible privilege!
I believe that providing solid platforms for kids to build their faith upon is of utmost importance in the fast-paced culture we live in. This is why I have always been drawn to The Bridge’s continual desire to creatively support the spiritual development of children and teens along with the family systems they are a part of.
Bio
As a young child I remember having passions for learning, leading, and Jesus. The church has always felt like home to me. Looking back on God’s path for me I am ever aware that he has continuously shaped me for the kingdom work I am doing today. I was a middle school teacher for five years before entering into full-time ministry. After pursuing a master’s degree in education, I went straight into my Master of Divinity degree. Yes… until my ordination in 2015 I was a graduate student for nine years!
It’s an incredible privilege to partner with the gifted coordinators, directors, and volunteers on our Family Ministry team who “make it happen” every single day! My desire is to provide discipleship in these areas that is biblically sound, culturally relevant, and relationally rooted in Christ and his church for the next generation.
I am a lover of the hottest of hot sauces, trying to grow things in my garden, and a great thrift shop! My greatest treasures on the face of the planet are my husband, Corbett, our son Will, and our daughter and son-in-law, Kathryn and Trace.
