   Colleen has been a born again Christian for some thirty five years. She worked with her husband in the family business while raising their two children.

Colleen also worked as a Career Counselor at the high school level and in fact started the first model career center in Idaho.  In that position she tested all 2500 high school students for Interest Inventories and GATB testing. She counseled students not only in choosing colleges and careers but also students who had been suspended.

She has taken a JAY ADAMS COUNSELING COURSE as well as the American Association of Christian Counselors (AACC) BIBLICAL COUNSELING COURSE. Colleen enjoys mentoring women of all ages and especially enjoys working with children of divorce.

She has taught new believers and feels a firm Biblical foundation is needed for success in the Christian life as well as life functioning in the world. A marriage built Biblically is a strong one, so the emphasis of Colleen and her husband Larry's ministry is a Biblical one. Together they like to help couples with marriage problems and they feel their own strong marriage is a beacon in a world where marriages often fall apart because of lack of commitment. They also provide pre marital counsel.
