Patti has a love for children and is passionate about shaping kids' hearts with the love of Jesus. After many years in the corporate world, she was looking for a different direction. Since 2019, she has enjoyed working with kids ministry, reaching families to help change the lives of children, and spreading joy to children who after all will inherit the Kingdom of God.  

Patti and her husband Jesse have 5 children, 1 adopted daughter, and 4 grandchildren. She loves using her spiritual gifts of administration and hospitality and brings over 25 years of technical and management experience to Great Oaks Children's Ministry Admin!
