| Tell us a little about yourself and your family.
My husband Kris and I are the pastors at All Saints Lutheran Church in Mt. Pleasant, SC. We live in Mt. Pleasant with our 9-year-old twins, Stella and Virginia. In addition to my part-time pastoral work, I also work in architecture as a residential designer. What is your history with NovusWay? I began as a Lutheridge camper in 1993, and have returned nearly every summer as a camper, counselor, pastor or parent. I have served on Senior Staff, as a Kairos leader, and as a Faith Alive retreat leader. Kris and I met while working on summer staff at Lutheridge, so we have made sure to bring our twins to camp both for summer camp and retreat-season events. Stella and Virginia now consider Lutheridge their home-away-from home. What is your goal for your board service? As chair of the Property Committee, my board service has given me a unique opportunity to combine ministry with my architectural work. I hope that my board contribution allows me to give back just a fraction of what this organization had given me. If you had any superpower, what would it be? If I had a superpower, I would want super speed. It would make it so much easier to visit to our three amazing camps! The NovusWay Board member terms begin July 1 and last for three years. A board member may serve two consecutive terms. On July 1, 2026, we welcome three gifted and committed individuals to the board. Pat Cornwall is our lay representative for the Southeastern Synod. Sara Cutter and Scott Pinkerton are both filling at large positions on the board. During the next year of “Meet the Board”, we will be introducing them in more detail. We thank Charles Bridgers, Ranate Patrick and Bill Trexler, whose terms ended June 30, 2026. Each of them began their first term as we had to close our camps due to the COVID-19 outbreak. As a group, they are very grateful that NovusWay and our camps have excellent leaders and staff, and look forward to continuing to support this organization. |
