Married: Widowed – Was married 45 years Children: Yes, two adult children – both married Grandchildren: Yes, 5 grandchildren Currently available to take mentees: Yes. Available to take one. Dates/Times: Varies (once a week or once every two weeks based on mentee’s preference.) Though I grew up in a non-Christian home, I have been a Christian since I was 7 years old! I grew up poor in a very dysfunctional family and am continuously grateful that God called me to Himself young, as I have had the guidance, comfort, and support of the Holy Spirit since that time. I am a 70-year-old widow. I was married to Doug for 45 years. We were engaged at 18 and married at 19! I have two adult children. Rebecca is married to Brian and has two sons, Ben and Josh. I have the pleasure of living in a large home with them in the Glen Eagle area. My son Jered lives in Southern California with his wife Karla and their three children—Adam, Violet, and Penelope. Doug and I were missionaries with Wycliffe Bible Translators in the 1980’s. Additionally, I have worked outside of my home most of my life. I am a Marriage and Family Therapist with experience as a school counselor, a social worker, and a manager with Child Protective Services, and have taught and worked in the domestic violence field. I am currently working part-time in private practice, seeing clients out of my home. I feel called to support mentoring at CFC, as it is a biblical mandate for older women to help younger women, and because I very much enjoy supporting women in their sanctification as they grow one step closer to Jesus!
