Meet Karen Stuckey!

Hi Ladies!  The introduction of the other members of the leadership team continues.  Most of you have met or at least seen Karen in the lobby on Sunday mornings.  I have asked her to answer a few questions about herself and those answers are in the paragraphs below.


My name is Karen Stuckey.  My husband Bill and I have been married for 32 years and have two adult children, a married daughter Laura and a son Bennett, a senior in college.  I have been a stay-at-home wife and mom for most of our married life.  I enjoy tennis, walking, and boat rides with Bill.  (We usually have room for more!)

We found our way to Lake Valley in the spring of 2002 and it didn't take attending more than about two services to realize I had found my church home.  I have been active in Women's Ministry under some gifted leadership through the years.  I help the LVCC office with the administrative duties of organizing Home Groups and serve as the coordinator for First Touch ministry (greeters).  Bill and I have been home group pastors for a number of years.

I am energized by being a part of a team where each member uncovers their passion and gets to use it for the benefit of those we are serving.  I love to spend time with women mentoring or coaching.  I am at the stage of life where I need to be looking over my shoulder at the generation of wives and mothers coming up behind me and be willing to follow the exhortation in Titus 2.  I love to listen to women's hearts, share mine when asked, hopefully pointing women to the One who created them.  I want to remind them of His life-changing love for them and help them discover the beauty and gifting He placed in them.  I believe our lives are a journey with a purpose, a plan, and a destiny ordained by God. I hope to help create opportunities for women to discover who they are as they courageously move toward theirs.

Thank, Karen for giving us a glimpse of your heart.

I am delighted to be on this leadership team with her as well as Karen Wright and Dian Glover.  You will be hearing more from each of them soon!

Are you ready to start getting to know each other a little better?  


Please leave a comment today telling us a little about yourself, your interests, and your family.  How long have you been at Lake Valley?  Do you have any hobbies?  Would you like to recommend a book  you enjoyed reading recently?  We want to hear from you!

Thanks for stopping by,
Suzanne

  1. Karen, thank you for following God's direction by assisting in the developing this Blog. I strongly believe we as women of God and LVCC have a avenue for getting to know one another on an intimate level enhancing our growth in the Lord.
