A native of Pasadena, Calif., I was raised in a Christian home and had the privilege of being in a church my entire life. Christ saved me later in life, as my understanding of my sin and my great need for a Savior and Lord was revealed through the preaching and reading of God's word.

Jon and I met in Bible college in Orange County and have been married for 33 years and have been blessed to be in the ministry the entire time. We have three grown daughters, a son-in-law and granddaughter who all live in the area and attend FCC. It has been a joy and a gift for me to be a part of the local church and to serve alongside my husband in his role as pastor and shepherd of this precious church since 2002.

I have a B.A in teaching and a Master's in Theological Studies to aid me in my deep desire of discipling women and teaching women's Bible study through the careful exposition of the Scriptures. I pray that I will be faithful in proclaiming Christ through His Word to encourage and equip women to be obedient to Him in their pursuit of holiness, as I pursue Him and long to be transformed more and more into His image.
