How long I've been at BBC and what I do:  I started in November 2007 and provide pastoral oversight to both Small Groups and Family Life (Adults: Couples, Men's, Women's, Seniors and Singles) Ministries.

A couple of things you wouldn't know about me:  I'm a published author and hold a Master of Divinity from Tyndale Seminary.

 A bit about my family:  My husband Joel is also involved in the Men's, Couples and Worship ministries and our daughters, Melody and Chenoa were baptized right here at BBC in November 2013.  We also have three wonderful grandkids!

Favourite things to do to relax:  One-on-one quiet prayer time or spiritual contemplation in God's presence is at the very top of my list.  Spending time with Joel and hanging out with our family also brings much joy!  

A passage of Scripture I am drawn to:  My absolute favourite Scripture is Jeremiah 33:3 , "Call on me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things which you have not seen."  I mean...WOW!

Hopes and dreams for BBC:  That we would be a unified body of grace and light which draws the lost and hurting to Christ.
