Hello, I'm Lori and I'm the Financial Bookkeeper at Palmyra Brethren In Christ Church. My primary responsibilities are handling the day-to-day financial duties of the church and helping the Treasurer as needed.
BASIC STUFF:
My husband Mike and I have been married for since 1995. We met on a blind date and then started a domino effect by setting up two friends on a blind date. They got married and set two friends up on a blind date and they got married, etc. We have two children: Kayla who is 11 and Jonathan who is 8. Besides working part-time here at Palmyra BIC, I also work part-time as bookkeeper and secretary for my husband's kitchen and bath business.

Odd Fact: I started working in my dad's wholesale car business at the age of 11. My favorite things to do there were taking the cars apart (seats, carpet, step plates, headlights, anything that was screwed down) and taking the upholstery off the seats by twisting the hog rings off.
LIFE SCRIPTURE:
A verse that has really helped me a lot, especially in the past two years is: Philippians 4:13 NLT - "For I can do everything with the help of Christ who gives me the strength I need."
