Tell us about a unique or quirky habit of yours. Doing housework in the middle of the night. (I know, I need help!!! And I don't mean a housekeeper, although that sounds nice.)
If you had to describe yourself using three words, it would be… Focused, caring and fun loving.
If I could be anybody besides myself, I would be… I wouldn't change who I am. I would like to be more like Mary (Martha's sister).
When, how, why did you start attending Living Hope? I started going to Living Hope when Charlene Haugen was in charge of Children's Church. Angela and Phil started attending Living Hope and I wanted to go where my family was going. I gave it a try and liked it once I started going to Home Groups and feeling connected. Now I love it especially since we got this awesome Pastor and Pastor's wife.
What message do you want to send to your LH friends? Thank you for being my church family. If you are not feeling connected: Get in on a Home Group and Women's Bible Study.
Very cool to get to know you better, Cindy! You've been married for 34 years - wow - you rock! What a legacy to leave to your children! We love you!
