Sherri Meier – Executive Administrator
You’ll often see me running around on Sundays mornings. It’s all part of the job of being the Executive Administrator. It’s also part of the job of being a Gramma to my 8 grandkids. My husband, Mike, and 4 kids have learned to accept this part of me as the usual. I look forward to meeting you, whether it be at a service, Bunko, a serving opportunity, a Bible Study or joining us on a motorcycle trip. And all of it is part of loving Jesus.
