Born and raised in Maryland, Caroline has lived in Florida for over thirty years with her husband, Steve, and their two children. They started attending COGS with her parents 10 years ago feeling that COGS has a great capacity to include members in its life and ministries. Serving as a member of the altar guild and as both an usher and greeter, Caroline says, "I love the camaraderie of the other members and the service we offer in preparing for worship." In her professional life she has been a teacher and counselor, having a Masters in Mental Health Counseling. "I am fascinated by people’s stories and want to help others achieve their best selves. 'All are Welcome, no exceptions,' is a credo to love and dignify all people. I am drawn to the belief that we are all deserving of God’s love and the challenge to treat others as God treats us."
