Rhonda Cullum - Children's Minister
I have lived in the area all my life and I am blessed to live close to all my nieces and nephews so that I can spoil them like crazy and then send them home to their parents. My passion and profession for the past 16 years has been teaching kindergarten and first grade. What a joy it is to see Jesus in the innocence of these sweet faces every day. God has enabled me to share Jesus with children and their families in ways I had never dreamed possible in the public school setting and I have witnessed the healing power that God’s mercy, grace, peace and love can bring to the lives of people.
BASIC STUFF:
God brought me to Lake Cities in 2002 and I was blessed to serve, teach and grow in faith with the youth of our church. It is a joy to watch these teens that I love grow in their faith and to see them reaching out and answering the call to love lost people. Since 2005 I have been serving in the children’s ministry at Lake Cities. I am excited to be a part of the Kidz Call ministry and I am looking forward to watching these precious little ones grow in their faith. It is my prayer that as we provide our children with a foundation built on God’s word, we will also by example teach them to love and touch the lives of lost people in our everyday world.
