My story
I’ve taught in all capacities in adult education, but my first trip to the jail started me on my 27 year journey. I don’t know why, but I immediately felt comfortable with slamming doors and locked classrooms. I remember the teacher, Barb, bringing in a bunch of bananas for the students and I made a mental note of wondering if that was a good idea or not. She taught class to about 12 students and at the end we talked while she cleaned up. I asked her if she would ever give up this class.
She answered without hesitation. “I love this class and I love what I do. The only way I would ever leave is if God calls me to go on a mission trip to Romania.” “So,” I asked with a slight smile, “When do you think God will be calling you?” “I have been praying about it for nine years,” she answered, “and He hasn’t called me yet. So, who knows?” Well, wouldn’t you know, just a few months later, God called her to Romania. And my journey began.
