My own calling as a missionary began in childhood. Although my dream of going to Africa or Asia as a nurse took a different path, God led me in amazing ways. After ten years of ministry in Ukraine—rich in intercultural experiences and marked by great challenges—we returned to Germany due to a serious illness my husband faced.

Re-entry was difficult and exhausting. Yet through loss and adversity, a deep love for caring for missionaries grew. Over the next ten years, we worked globally with a mission organization—mobilizing, mentoring, and training missionary candidates. These experiences now shape our Member Care work, where we offer intercultural workers a place of rest where they can simply be, reflect, feel understood, and be strengthened.
I look forward to contributing my personal skills and experiences to this important work.
