Preschool Sunday School Teacher
For the last two years, I have taught Sunday school for preschoolers once a month at GracePoint Church. Through this experience, I have learned how to implement lessons in developmentally appropriate ways for young children. This has also given me opportunities to practice connecting with families.
Missions TripsI have participated in four missions trips. During one trip, I traveled with a team to Los Angeles, CA and spent a week packing and delivering food boxes to people living in poverty. I have traveled two times to inner city Chicago, IL and conducted a week long vacation bible school program during the summer. Finally, I have traveled to Madrid, Spain and led worship services as well as witnessed to and prayed for people.

Participated in a Keep Bismarck Beautiful Event
In the fall of 2017, I participated in a "Keep Bismarck Beautiful" event. I spent an afternoon walking around central Bismarck picking up trash and cleaning up neighborhoods.
Bible Study Small Group
My husband coordinates a young adult Bible study at GracePoint church. I am a small group leader for this Bible study. I co-plan the weekly activities as well as pose reflective questions to further learning in the small groups. With this responsibility, I have the opportunity to collaboratively coordinate as well as participate in service events. In the last year, I have worked with a team to coordinate an event for Operation Christmas Child, and I volunteered during an event that partnered with Mercy Meals to package 50,000 meals for families in Liberia.

Led an Activity for BECEP Family Night
In one of my courses, I collaborated with my peers to plan an activity for a family night at BECEP. I created a cognitive-math focused activity that involved young children and their families. Through this opportunity, I was able to serve families with young children and provide them with a positive, educational weeknight activity.
