I am a single mom to 5 fabulously unique (mostly) grown humans, and CiCi to one grandchild. This single mom journey has been the hardest JOY.
My 20+ years in ministry shine with special highlights: Radio DJ'ing and commercial production; organizing an annual celebration meal for 500 internationals; putting bandaids on (barely there) cuts just to make them feel better; immobilizing 200+ congregants to serve with local community non-profits; coordinating travel and mission details for folks in dozens of countries; making/getting unique props like rockets, gold pants, fake mustaches, the solar system, fairy wings, etc.; connecting supportive people with places and people that need support.
For fun, I attend and often usher live theater, devour movies, cheer on sports (especially basketball #GoHeels, and Olympics), soak in solitude, haven't met a beach I don't love, and most importantly, I love to laugh... and laugh some more!
