About Me

Keller, TX, United States
I grew up on a farm in Indiana, attended Purdue and Concordia Universities (undergraduate and graduate, respectively), served in the Peace Corps in Ecuador, and as a missionary with LCMS World Mission for 20 years in Thailand (15) and Guatemala (5). More recently, I've attained teacher certifications (Bilingual and Regular Ed Generalist EC-6, Bilingual and Regular Ed Generalist 4-8, and ESL). My heart is still in that of being a missionary and my first full-time post as an elementary/middle school teacher is that of English Language Specialist at Buena Vista International School (BCIS) in Shenzhen, China on the mainland just across the border from Hong Kong. I teach ESL to all grades at this new school under Lutheran Church-Hong Kong Synod. The school is not a part of the LCMS though the school has been granted LCMS World Mission educational consultants and an interim principal for its first year of operation.

Earth Day at BCIS 2013

Monday, April 22, our school is observing a special day to give the children opportunity to learn about maintaining and saving our earth... Earth Day will be a day in which our kids will participate in many activities to give them a picture of what it means to save the earth and what they can do on a daily basis to that pursuit.  It should be a wonderful day!  One of the things classroom teachers will do is read the book "The Great Kapok Tree."  I think it has a great lesson for all to learn.
