My family first came to Family Life Center in 1987, just the second week after the church had moved out of a living room and into a rented building in Lynnwood. I started playing bass with the Worship Team in 1988, and was appointed as Worship Coordinator in 1989. I also served on the church council during those early years of Family Life Center. I have earned 2 bachelor degrees and a master’s degree in music education and currently teach middle school choir.

  I see my role as Worship Coordinator as being the overall leader and facilitator of the Worship Team. Not only do I give our worship leaders guidance and direction at times, but also any help they might need to facilitate leading the congregation into worship. I take care of practical needs like making sure everyone has music, scheduling and coordinating communication. I take overall responsibility for the sound system. I also am responsible for personnel issues. Over the years our understanding of worship has grown, and we continually seek to grow closer to where the Lord would have us be in worship.
