Lori directs Evergreen Bible Camp/Camp Evergreen which is a wonderful multigenerational family setting in which volunteers of all ages serve year to year and many campers view it as the highlight of their year. It is always a blessing to watch how God orchestrates, works through His people, and provides for the needs of the camp as we do all we can to keep costs down and make it affordable for families. Evergreen Events provide opportunities to continue these “family gatherings” periodically throughout the school year as we gather for a few hours of a fun activity, worship, devotional, food & fellowship. It also blesses Lori’s heart to be able to bring some of the camp family to a local nursing home periodically for a service of sharing God’s love and truths through music.

Lori has a heart for one-on-one ministry and bringing Scriptural truth to the difficulties of this earthly life. Seeing and experiencing the need for Bible-based counseling, yet knowing how the cost prohibits many from accessing it, she acquired a degree in Psychology with a Marriage and Family emphasis from the University of Northwestern. She continues to keep herself educated through conferences, webinars, and other materials. She has found more of Christ’s freedom and joy through the counseling she has received, and she desires to share that with others.

Lori also has a heart for the rural churches. She continues to serve as a pianist and in children’s ministry at the Hustletown Community Church where she and Bruce served together for over 30 years, and also serves in a local AWANA program. As an Area Missionary/Field Staff, she is a support resource person for the local rural InFaith churches.

Lori has served with InFaith since March of 2007.

When her husband, Bruce, was a bi-vocational pastor (pastoring a small country church while also working full-time), and she was working as a paraprofessional in their school district, she had prayed for a year, unbeknownst to Bruce, for a way for God to provide for them minister on a full-time basis. She had no idea that when the local InFaith area missionary was ready to retire, he would ask her & Bruce to consider taking over the field. She and Bruce served together for 16 1/2 years before Bruce stepped into retirement.

Lori is blessed to be active in the lives of the families of their two adult daughters, their husbands, and seven wonderful grandchildren.
