Amanda

Amanda was the leader of the BattleCreek CG (Community Group) that I was in for a while.  Even though I'm in a different group now, I really do appreciate her friendship and solid leadership!  She has a lot of spiritual depth, and she really studied and prepared and was a great leader who made new people like me feel very welcome and comfortable!

One of many random connections in the LC/BC groups - Amanda was roommates with Jennie Curran for a while! :)

She is engaged now to a great guy named Caleb, and I'm so very happy for them!! 

Why are all of my friends runners!? lol   She joined Clayton and his team for the Half-Marathon in Hawaii last July!  Fun!!

Amanda works as a Radiation Therapist at Saint Francis Hospital, and I'm sure she is warm and encouraging to all of her patients!  Having a nurse who truly cares about you as a person makes all the difference in the world sometimes.

She is beautiful and confident, but at the same time very humble and honest about her weaknesses and insecurities.  She is thoughtful, warm, and kind... and does her best to make everyone feel included!

 I'm very thankful for Amanda and for my time in her "CoGro!"
