Andrea is an insightful and invaluable leader here at Well Christian Woman. Much of the successes we have in encouraging our readers and viewers can be attributed to her and we are excited to have her with us!
“Hi there! I’m a wife and mama of two boys living in Halifax, NS. I grew up in the church as a pastor’s kid, but am still on this crazy journey of what it means to live a life of faith and intimacy with God. You’re most likely to catch me curled up under a blanket with a book and mug of tea, playing a round of Skip-Bo with my kids (and really trying to tame my competitive side), or snuggled on the couch with my husband watching another episode of This Is Us. Usually, I’m eating chocolate.”
