I grew up as an Air Force kid and lived in many different States.  After graduating from Lanier High School in Montgomery, Alabama, I moved to Chattanooga to attend Tennessee Temple Univ. where I met my husband, Mike.  We've been married for 28 years and have three amazing boys. Alan attends UTC, Jonathan is at Chattanooga State and  TJ is a sophomore here at Grace.  In 1989 I had the priviledge of starting and directing Grace Children's Center.  After 9 years of working in the Children's Center, we joined the Association of Baptists for World Evangelism and moved to Budapest, Hungary where we served as missionaries for 10 years. What an incredible opportunity we had to minister to the Hungarian people.  While there, our boys attended the International Christian School of Budapest and I served in many areas, one of which was in school counseling. Currently, I am pursuing my Masters in School Counseling with Baptist Bible College.  I'm thrilled to once again be a part of the Grace family and can't wait to see what God is going to do in and through me in the coming years.
