About Me
Vince and I are still in upstate NY. We have five children: David (who works at a nursing home in the area); Sean, who works with Vince in the ministry and lives in RI going to grad school for theology, is married to Ruth, has two sons Noah (2/13/06) and Daniel (11/6/07); Michael, who works as an assistant manager at Curtis Lumber, is married to Jasara, and has a son Micah (9/28/07) and a daughter Zoe (7/09); Joelle, who married Russell Brown December '09, and moved to RI is working in the finance department of a company there; and Grace, who works as the secretary for Vince in the ministry. All are not too far from us geographically. We are so thankful to God for them and that they love God. Really, when we decided to have children, most of all we wanted them to love God. What a joy that they do!
My Interests
Furthering the gospel message and doing my part the best I can as a member of the Body of Christ. Being a slave to God and the Lord Jesus Christ. Loving God with all my heart.
Employment or Career
I help with our ministry which is currently called Living Hope International Ministries. Our website is kingdomready.org or lhim.org. I am still proofreading (which I did even in residence for The Way). Please don't send me any work as I am always behind. Vince writes books, articles, letters, teaching notes, etc. Vince and I have a home fellowship on Wednesdays. We have a weekly Sunday morning fellowship in our own building, and I oversee the toddlers and babies.
Music I Like
Mostly Christian of many kinds (praise, contemporary, instrumental, old fashioned). Also, country music from time to time.

I was trying to get back to your comment, but somehow I couldn't reconnect. I was deeply touched by your mentioning that you now had a "son" who is African American. Despite the challenges that those circumstances may present, the love of God never fails and will always prevail. As you and Vince demonstrate the love of God, you will be successful in whatever you do. God has something special in mind, in that He handpicked you guys for this wonderful yet weighty responsibility. You may not understand it now, but years from now, you'll look back and see the hand of God. Indeed, we know that all things work together for the good, to them that love God, to them that are the called according to His purpose. You and Vince, especially, know about the awesome privilege of being "called" by God for His purpose, which may be radically different from what we think our purpose should be. Be assured that "Father knows best." Enjoy this new adventure. There is never a dull moment with God.
Be blessed,

God bless you! I enjoyed working in the Corps office with you, and learned so much from you! Over the years I've been reminded of your positive outlook, and looking at what can be done, and not at what seems impossible. I'm not a computer person, so Paul is writing this as I am speaking. It's great hearing from you Mimi!
Love in Him,

Nice to see your smiling face again. A lot of water has gone under the duck since I last saw you and Vince. Patricia Byrne had told me she is in touch with you.
Delighted to see you are still hanging in there. And your kids are so grown up. Mind you my eldest, Emily, was 24 yesterday.
God bless and keep up the good work.
