Personal Interests

My interests include Fellowship, Family and Friends predominantly being involved in community and learning and growing both individually and collectively.  

Grandchildren are now a favourite group of people I have opportunity to share time with from time to time in person and keep regular communication with.

Being in nature alone recharges me with early morning walks and adventurous escapes are often enjoyed with my husband and dog caravanning or camping or visiting our children in different parts of the world with 3 overseas either permanently or on assignments.

Fitness and supporting good health are important watersports and walking my most common.

Music, singing and the perming arts both participating and as an appreciative audience member is woven through my life with having a Jazz Gospel with my children when at home then through to ensembles, Musical pit orchestra members and choirs. 

Gardening, cooking and renovating are also common activities both enjoyed and shared.


In Summary

In regards to this application .....

With  the privilege of what seems a history book of life already experienced and the satisfaction of the learning and the support given.


I am now in a season of life where I have defined more clearly my purpose, skills are honed to be effective in supporting a vision/ministry/purpose to bring His will on earth.   I have the support of my husband who is still finishing the renovating, but also as the son of overseas Missionary parents fully understands this step for me and we both believe the  season for me to independently be itinerant has closed, my family has grown and its time to consolidate alongside and knot within a team with a common vision.   


By faith my world has and continually is changing and aligning to His will and purpose and of the ministries I have been involved with in the past Creflo Dollar Ministries connected with me so many times at that divine moment.  Being in ministry myself you didn't talk to many I faced  challenges and regularly the ministry team call would come.  Thank you, His love flows through this ministry to transform lives, mine and my family members included.


Thank you for this opportunity to present my CV and may His wisdom and blessings flow as you steward and progress forward in His will and way
