This is all very new for me but I’m very blessed that God has provided very experienced individuals to come along side me and help me in this endeavor. I am first a wife and a mother of two beautiful children. I have been a business owner and property manager for 8 years. I have a two-year degree in Finance and have some experience and education in the mission field through Youth With a Mission.

Pastor Matt Miklasz as Vice President
Matt had served on the Community Benevolent Board of Stanley, WI for six years. He is currently the Senior Pastor at Faith Evangelical Free Church of Sparta. Prior to his service here to our community he served as a pastor in Stanley, WI for 15 years. While serving here he has had the opportunity to counsel many people, often single mothers who have shared their struggles. As a result Pastor Matt has grown very passionate for this cause. Pastor Matt is very experienced in speaking, leadership and in carrying out vision. We are excited to have him as a part of our team!

Judy had been a single mother herself and has a huge heart and desire to give even more back to the community now that she has retired.  She is an incredible woman with immense wisdom. We are very grateful to have her as a part of the team!

Rachel McPherson as a Voting Member
Rachel is a devoted wife and a mother of five wonderful children. Rachel has also served on the board of The Sparta Area Christian School. She is very active in her church. She runs the Assembly of God’s Children’s Program and has also planned and organized several events and other programs. Being a mother and knowing the importance of giving a family a strong and stable foundation to live off of has given Rachel a burden to help young unwed mothers break the cycle. We are blessed to have such a servant’s heart as a part of our board.
