I have been associated with Heit's Point as maintenance and more since 2001.  I retired from the Air Force and at that time the only job I wanted was to take care of this facility.  I believe in the need for all of us to get away from the rat race of society and get back to a relationship with Christ and what better place than in His beautiful creation.  I love working with adults and youth and as volunteer coordinator, I am always blessed with the fellowship that the volunteers bring.   I look forward to working with all of you in the future.

From a very young age, I've had a love for Heit's Point. It started as a camper at the tender age of 9. I kept coming back, and have experienced camp in many different ways. I've been a camper, a volunteer, retreat participant, counselor, and now, your Program Director. I now realize that life is much bigger than just summer camp, and camp ministry can affect so many more people than just kids. My goals are to reach as many people as possible, and bring them to a place where we shine Jesus in everything that we do. I look forward to serving you through our ministry. Blessings.

I have been with Heit's Point for a little over a year now.  I really enjoy the people I work with, all the volunteers and Board members.  I enjoy the work I do here.  I was born in Cedar Rapids, Iowa; grew up in Virginia; and have lived in Missouri for 4 years now.  I am married to my best friend Luther Carter.  Together we have six children and three adorable granddaughters.  I enjoy everything that has to do with the outdoors.
