I live in Lino Lakes and have two grown children, John (30) and Amy (29). I've worked in Human Resource Management for over 20 years, a majority of that time in the medical device industry. My 'holy discontent' drives my passion to serve the poorest of the poor. In January of 2012 I was put in the path of Healing Haiti and was blessed with the opportunity to become their Aquaponics Lead Advocate. In April I made my first trip to Haiti to view the future aquaponics site at Grace Village. It was during this trip that I discovered God's purpose for my life. I joyfully return to Haiti on a regular basis, each time anticipating how God will reveal his power, grace, love and transformation.
"Isn't it tragic when we become so self-centered we enter God's presence and say, "O God, bless me, bless my family, bless my church?" Then God says, "I've been trying to do that all along but in a completely different way than you anticipated. I want you to deny self. Pick up your cross and follow me. I will lead you to places where I am working and I'll include you in my activity. You will be an instrument in My hand as I use your life to touch the world. When I do that through you, you will truly experience My blessings." - Henry Blackaby
