About My Family

I have been happily married for 31 years. My husband and I have one daughter who is a CPA and another daughter who is a data scientist. They both work for Delta. My husband worked as a computer engineer for UPS and retired in February 2022. I have one sister who is married and a nephew.

About My Ministry

I am an SBC-endorsed healthcare chaplain with Baptist Health South Florida in Miami, Fla.

God has graciously provided a new ministry assignment as a staff chaplain with Baptist Health South Florida. We are in the midst of moving and transitioning to this new divine assignment. I graduated with a Master of Arts in Pastoral Ministry in May 2022 from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary (NOBTS). I graduated with my Master of Divinity with a specialization in chaplaincy in December 2023 from NOBTS. I am a licensed professional counselor and graduated with my master’s degree in counseling and psychological services in 1989.

I have served my Lord faithfully as a Christian counselor.

SBC Chaplaincy

Chaplaincy is a vital frontline ministry and extension of the local church. Chaplains reach the lost among the thousands of men and women in the U.S. Armed Forces, correctional facilities, healthcare settings, public safety, disaster relief sites and corporate environments. SBC Chaplains care for the broken, offer hope to the hopeless and advance the gospel of Jesus Christ in hard to reach places.
The qualifications expected of a Southern Baptist applying for endorsement as a chaplain are established by the using agency and the Chaplains Commission, SBC. These qualification requirements vary according to the type of chaplaincy involved but all are expected to meet a high level of ministerial competence.

Pray

Pray for boldness to share the gospel and open hearts among the people to whom I minister. Pray for people to come to saving faith in Jesus. Pray for more to become missionaries and chaplains.
