Katy grew up going to the church next door to her Nana’s house, which made every Sunday a family reunion. Her vision of church is a place where people of all ages feel the warm, unconditional, nurturing welcome of a grandmother’s home–a place declaring God’s extravagant love for all!  Katy brings gifts of joy, patience, and improvisation to her ministry, always honoring the full inner life of the children she works with. Katy is the parent of two young children and enjoys gardening, spending time outside, singing, and making art with crayons and paints.
