June of 2024 marked 28 years of being on staff with Cru. Seeing the lives of students transformed and resourcing and caring for fellow Cru staff, has allowed me to see God work in so many ways! It has grown my view of who God is and grown my heart for others. We are so thankful that as I was homeschooling the kids, I could engage in a variety of ways in the mission of reaching students for Jesus!

As I enter this new season with both of our kids in college, I am now engaging full time with our national  Mission Trip Team with Scott! We both wholeheartedly believe summer missions are one of the best things Cru does. I have spent many summers on Cru Summer Missions in Newport Beach, Central Asia, Ocean City, Santa Monica, and East Asia. Those summers were life changing! I love that the Lord lets us be a part of what He is doing to draw people to Himself! 

The first role I am taking on is working on our Summer Mission Team Leaders Conference (SMTLC) that happens every January. It is where we train and equip all of our summer leaders, from all over the country, to lead a summer mission team! I will also be adding in handling some communication for our team in the coming months. 

Growing into adulthood and raising a family on staff with Cru has been such an incredible blessing.  We have been consistently surrounded by leaders and friends who are full of faith, wanting to grow and desiring His name to be glorified above all else! I look forward to many more years of serving the Lord and serving others SO THAT His name is praised among the nations!
