| I have been married to Bruce Groenendyk since July of 1980 and for most of those years we have lived on the Groenendyk family farm. (We spent 1 year in Sioux Center, IA, and 3 years in SW Minnesota before moving here.) The Lord blessed us with two sons: Alan, who is 21, and Nathan, who is 17. My hobbies and interests include gardening, tennis, running, reading, and music (singing, playing organ, piano, and clarinet). I love teaching! The daily variety, challenges, and joys make every day a new experience. It is such a joy to let the light of God's Word shine through all subjects and aspects of the day. A favorite Bible passage of mine is Romans 12:9-21 because it provides such a complete set of guidelines for daily living. |
