Following retirement from a long nursing career, I am completing my final studies through the UCC toward becoming a Licensed Lay Worship Leader. I grew up in a farming community in southwestern Ontario.  Our family has lived in Oakville since 1988 and are active members of Munn’s United Church.  We have three adult sons, and are proud first time grandparents.

My leadership style might best be described as deeply practical.  I believe in the importance of honouring tradition, while bringing God’s message of love and grace into our everyday lives.  Worship is where we can be renewed and refreshed to face the challenges ahead and give thanks for the many gifts we have been given.

We are not alone. Thanks be to God.
