About Me

Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada
i live in Sault Ste. Marie in an old brick house with my husband Jarod, two cats and some roommates. I'm an ordained minister in the PAOC (Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada). In 2012, a church called The Summit got in touch about re-starting their university/college expression, One Campus Church. After a lot of prayer and conversation, we arrived here that fall. Jarod got his job at a local engineering firm, and it's been a great adventure ever since. I travel once or twice a month for work in echocardiography (heart ultrasound), and I hope my experience as a bi-vocational pastor encourages others doing the same.

"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat." - Theodore Roosevelt

"This is the true joy of life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; being a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy." - George Bernard Shaw

"All hard work brings a profit, but mere talk leads only to poverty." - Proverbs 14:23
