I
like to sew, read novels, take long walks, and play golf.
Gifted with friends who share my interests, I enjoy live
theater, classical music concerts, and operas. I am currently
serving on the board of directors of ARC Retreat Community.
And I am always happy to let a restaurant do the cooking.

“My
concerns weave together Christian Education and
spiritual formation. Effective educational ministries
equip
and empower children, youth, and adults to encounter
God in both personal and corporate ways. This includes
knowing the tradition of the Church, as well as being
open to challenging and transforming the Church in
ways that are faithful and just.”

“Spiritual
formation is effective when it awakens persons and
communities of faith to be faithful in their relationships
with Jesus Christ, caring in their relationships
with others, and committed to living lives that are
part of God’s transforming work in the world.” |
