United Faith Campus Ministry

I have been the administrative assistant for the student ministry for 10 years now.  I’ve loved this ministry since I was introduced to it when I was a senior in high school.  I couldn’t wait to become a part of the ministry.  I met my husband through this ministry and were married in the chapel when the ministry was located across the street.  We have been married for 37 years now and have four great kids.  We also have two grandchildren and one on the way in February, Gus, Olive, and ?.  Needless to say, they are the light of our lives. 

I was very excited to become a part of this ministry again when we moved back east river after living in Philip, SD for 25 years.  Watching students “live their faith” in a university setting is always rewarding.  It’s always sad to see them graduate, but also exciting to see what they do with their faith when they leave here.  We get to touch their lives for such a short time, but always hope they learned something here they can take with them for a lifetime.

I am also employed by Brookings First United Methodist as their visitor coordinator and new member coordinator, so obviously, I love meeting new people. 

Stop in and say hi, I rarely forget a face or name!

In Christ’s Service,
