This is my first post so I will start with an introduction. I'm not a pastor's wife however both my husband and I are heavy involved in just about everything. LOL! I wear several hats. As a child the church I grew up in was small but the pastor's family took me in as though I was family. They taught me music and involved me in everything within the church. Today I travel singing and speaking. My husband and I travel together and he does all the tech stuff.(Sound and Multimedia) You will find us gone most weekends but when I am in town I also serve on the Praise team and soloist. On the week days I'm part of the Creative Design Team at our church. Which has been running around 1700. My job is to pick out music for the sermons.I'm also a part of the Northeast Artist Guild. Which is a non-profit organization for artist. Helping other artist's grow into their ministry and better artists.
My husband and I travel helping churches with the arts. Not only do I do concerts and speak. We also give seminars on tech and worship, etc. My heart has always been attached to pastoral struggles even as a child. The conflicts within the church and the lack of servants that sometimes can bring a whole church down. I'm glad to have found this place because I too can sometimes use a word of encouragement and prayer. Hope to get to know you all. Blessings!
