As the Children and Family Minister, Lora has a deep love for people—especially children—and a passion for helping families grow together in faith and community. She also serves in St. Andrew’s  Preschool as the enrichment teacher, where she enjoys fostering creativity, curiosity, and joy in young learners. She brings a bright, joyful energy to everything she does and is always eager to connect, encourage, and celebrate others.

At home, she shares life with her husband, Chris, and their two boys.  As a family, they love hiking, exploring national parks, and getting their hands dirty playing in the outdoors. Whether in ministry or everyday life, she is happiest building relationships, sharing joy, and embracing every adventure along the way.
