Her family includes two teenaged daughters, one husband, two parents, four dogs, six cats, five goats, two horses, and numerous chickens all within a quarter mile radius. She says, “My greatest joy and honor is to walk with others as they seek to walk with God. Sometimes that looks like teaching or leading retreats, other times it looks like spiritual direction but mostly it looks like friendship.”
