Mandy married her college sweetheart and they went straight into full time ministry and have been there ever since. Their first 16 years were in youth ministry and they jokingly say it was so they didn’t have to grow up!
Mandy and Tom have celebrated 34 years serving together with their last 15 being here at Fall Creek Christian Church. They have 4 daughters, a son, 4 son in laws and 4 grandchildren, so you can see they LOVE kids. They also LOVE our church family and they are so excited to see Fall Creek Christian preschool become a reality. Her granddaughter loves it and Mandy loves it because she gets to hear the same message at school that she is hearing at home about Gods love and plan for her.
Every once in awhile you may see Mandy running around with the kids, as she will be filling in as needed as a sub. Mandy looks forward to meeting you and as you can see from her story, she keeps finding ways to avoid having to grow up. 😉
