I was directed to Manchester UMC in September 2019 and became a member shortly thereafter.  I soon joined the Welcome Team, packed bags for Food 4 Kids, joined MO-Hab in support of Habitat for Humanity, enrolled in classes and Making Disciples bible study, and Disciple Bible Study classes.  I am a Co-Leader of Food 4 Kids Ministry, a member of the Chancel Choir, and currently studying for commissioning into Stephen Ministry in May 2023.  I grew up in northern Missouri, graduated from the University of Missouri – Columbia and Pace University in New York.   After a career in accounting, finance and risk management I retired, only to return to working part time here at Manchester UMC in the Finance Dept.  I am truly blessed to be working in my home church.
