In His infinite grace and wisdom, God created me with a mind that loves to entertain words. Words run and tumble about like children on a playground, loud and boisterous, eager to try out new voices, new friends, and new games.

The more I try to silence them, the louder and more unruly they become. FatithWriters is a playground for my words. They are happy moving and growing here among like-minded friends, weaving tales and poems, while encouraging and inspiring others to do the same.

Besides writing, I have enjoyed teaching Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten for many years; I lead a Sunday school class for women who are hungering and thirsting after God; and I also love to play piano and sing.

My husband and I have been happily married for thirty-three years. We are wedding coordinators, and also serve as marriage mentors. We are the parents of three sons, all of whom, by God’s grace, are adults walking with Him. They have brought three beautiful daughters in law and two adorable grandchildren into our lives as well.

Through Faithwriters I am developing my writing skills and exploring new writing opportunities.

God has worked powerfully through dark and difficult experiences in my life, as well as through many servants of Light, to draw me to Him. He continues to use circumstances in my life to mold and shape me into His likeness. My goal is to use the gift of words God has given to me to minister to and encourage others, and ultimately to exalt His holy name.
