Currently I am serving overseas in Italy, focused on pregnancy care needs for women who do not have a relationship with Christ at U.S. Military Installations. As the Lord leads through various outreach activities I make connections with women who are active duty service members or who are wives and daughters of servicemen. I am committed to Christ-centered initiatives, such as pregnancy support and counseling for mothers utilizing education that glorifies Christ. With the guidance of the Holy Spirit, I pray for, counsel, and direct women to choose life in all circumstances.

Years ago while utilizing my nursing skills, I became active in volunteering at my local community pregnancy help center. This local mission field became the very heart of my service in sharing the gospel while guiding and counseling women to discover their identity and value in Christ. Through my challenging experience of teenage pregnancy, I can personally share the love and grace of Jesus Christ for women who are questioning their value to God.

While serving in La Paz, Bolivia on a short term missions trip, I was able to teach mothers how to properly care for their children with all levels of hygiene instruction and educate them on serving balanced meals and healthy dietary needs. It helped them value themselves as mothers to care and implement healthy choices for their children.
