I am thrilled to be a part of APO!  I had an opportunity to get to know Kim (and her big beautiful heart) through Connecting Point Church before I knew much about APO.  I have long known that our area needed to offer choices to young people who find themselves in the midst of an unplanned pregnancy.  I love that APO has found an amazing way to do just that, with love, respect and understanding.

The amazing world of adoption first touched our lives when my older sister and her husband were suddenly gifted with a strapping, red-haired baby boy.  They were notified on a Sunday evening that a birthmother had requested a match with them… for her baby born the day before.  Within 24 hours they brought home my nephew Caleb.  Just a few short years later my younger sister and her husband began the process for bringing a little one into their family, and we were blessed with my niece, Samantha.  I was so blown away by the example of true love both birthmothers expressed by choosing adoptive families for their babies.

B/CS has been home to my husband and myself since we were born.  We’ve been together for over 30 years and have raised four children. We are currently enjoying being grandparents to three awesome boys and one wonderful girl.

I am so excited to be able to use the gifts and talents God has given me (office administration, organization, creative problem solving) to help support the “backside” of APO so that many lives can be touched and blessed.
