MY JOY
Spending time with my husband of 28 years, Steve and our adult children Spencer and Nate. I love traveling, cooking, reading and watching college football, especially USC.
WHAT I LOVE ABOUT FRIENDS
I love the FCS community. My grown boys are still friends with the kids they went to FCS with. I loved raising my boys around other like-minded, Christian parents and staff. I love the small town feel of our school.
FAVORITE SPOT ON CAMPUS
Chapel every Wednesday morning!
FAVORITE FRIENDS TRADITION
So many favorite traditions.. Thanksgiving chapel, the Friends Christian welcome we give to our speakers, staff Christmas chapel, prayer walks on campus, Extreme Games week and spending time with the Principal for a day winner.
FAVORITE BIBLE VERSE (OR LIFE VERSE)
“And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:7
