Director Evangelism and Connect Ministry
How I came into relationship with Jesus Christ
My parents became Christians when I was in the 4
th
grade. They were friends with a lot of other new Christians, so I heard a lot of stories and concluded at an early age, “God loves people no matter what and God can change lives.” I asked Christ into my life when I was 9 and rededicated my life to the Lord, after a time of wandering, when I was 15.
How I came to Wheaton Bible Church
My husband Lon spoke at a
MissionsFest
. He loved Wheaton Bible Church and Rob Bugh. I was transitioning jobs and asked Rob Bugh for advice. He invited me to be on staff.
What I do at Wheaton Bible Church
I encourage the volunteer staff whose job it is to create a welcoming environment for worship (ushers, greeters, welcome desk hosts, visitor center hosts, parking, gatekeepers). I seek to equip and inspire the church toward evangelism. I oversee the
Belong membership class
.
Why I do what I do
One part of what I do is because we moved a lot when I was young, so I always felt like the new kid. It has given me empathy for those who are not yet connected. The evangelism part of what I do is because I saw the power of God to change people’s lives at an early age and that has never left me.
