The many years the Lord allowed us to serve at Highland Park were such a blessing to our family! During our time at Highland Park Baptist church I served in the music ministry, It was also such a joy to begin "Children's Church" for our students who had outgrown the nursery but couldn't get understand or comprehend messages in "big church" typically this was offered Sunday morning for grades 1st-5th. Awana was such a gift to all who were involved and enriched our children's ministry. Shortly before the Lord led our family we were also blessed to begin a childrens choir.

Trinity Baptist Church is the church I attended from preschool until college years. I was beyond blessed to be able to serve in the music ministry from a very early age (children's choir, then youth choir, and adult choir) I was very involved in almost every ministry children's church, youth leadership, music, AWANA, ....we went on numerous mission trips that changed my life and I knew I was called to serve my Lord in ministry.
