Thank you for following me as I work at following Jesus. It is only a table and now belongs to the son of one of my dearest friends. I’m “simplifying”. I need increased mobility in this next season of service in other places. It is one more reminder that we can’t take it with us….

Missions: The Why

Posted on July 31, 2022July 31, 2022 by Pam

Pam writes so that must make her a writer. Recently retired, she can now fill days with family, friends, missions, writing, creating, and showing up for whomever needs her. Pam loves the Lord and people. The Bible is God’s love letter to us (and who does not need more love) so she studies and writes some more.

Pam lives in the Pacific Northwest but was home-grown in Southern California. She attended San Jose Bible College and finished a Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry at UCLA. She became a teacher, then a Research and Development Chemist, then she built two successful real estate businesses in two states. Pam also pursued study at Fuller Theological Seminary and just completed six months serving in missions abroad.

Pam has two amazing children, married to two precious in-laws, and five sweet grandchildren. Pam is a gifted connector and communicator and the Northwest has the perfect climate for staying inside and writing – or baking! She has been writing since a wee one and is currently converting many years of blogging, by topic, into ten books. The first is a collection from 2011 titled, Beautiful Enough. The second is a yearly day-timer titled, Weekly Planner - Lessons in Life, Glory, and Grace. Number three is in progress with the working title, Christmas Today.

Ten facts about Pam in no particular order:

On the team that developed an insulation for the Alaskan oil pipeline.
Loves looking at homes, decorating, and has flipped five homes.
Likes being tall.
Films have helped define her vocabulary.
Comes from Colorado tenement farmers with history traced to Wales.
Was lost but now is found.
Baking makes her happy – as does eating sweets with coffee, of course.
She thinks mission work is the most important work in the world.
The church started in Rome so she is learning Italian.
Pam is a work in progress!
