Hello! My name is Lindsay. I have lived in the La Crosse area since 2005, when my husband, Kevin, and I got married and moved from Wyoming. We call this place home now, and currently live in Onalaska with our 10 year old, Charlie, and 6 year old, Linken.
In my winter free time (when I become a bit of a hermit!) I really enjoy drawing, painting, reading or baking. One of the things I have seen work most strongly in my life is the power of prayer. So please seek me out if you ever need prayer for ANYTHING! I am so excited to be a part of the team at Olivet!
