Dawn likes to hike and loves being in the outdoors. She also enjoys crafts and refurbishing furniture.
As Children’s Director Dawn enjoys reaching the younger generation by inspiring them to become the best version of whom God created them to be.
Her favorite scripture is Proverbs 3:5-6. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding.
Trust is believing for the impossible; that God can move mightily even if we can’t physically see with our own natural eyes. Trusting is relying on God’s path and way instead of clinging to the pathway of our own decisions which could ultimately lead to destruction.
