This question makes me laugh since it made me realize I can't remember the last time I actually listened to what I wanted.

Meet our Fearless Leaders!!!

Meet DAYNA GRAVELINE: 

Our M2M Coordinator!! 

1. Favorite Bible Verse:
 -Joshua 1:9, "Haven't I commanded you? To be strong and courageous? Do not be terrified, neither be discouraged. For the Lord, you God, is with you wherever you go." I learned this verse as a song/rap when I was at a junior high summer camp and it's been my life verse ever since! 

2. Hobby?
 -Some would say, Mom 2 Mom is my hobby! LOL! I like "learning" to be more crafty and doing things to decorate my house- but this is a process! I love getting out once in a while and hittin' up the Karaoke mic!


3. Most Played song on iTunes/iPod:
  -This is so hard to answer because I am such a music lover in general. My father was a music teacher in public schools and also a music minister at my home town church- so the love of music is in my blood. I get down to some JT (Justin Timberlake), but then also like to shake it to Tim McGraw and some times I pretend I'm Carrie Underwood- but don't tell anyone that! 

4. Dream Job:
  -I feel like I'm living my dream job now as a mommy who also gets to run an awesome ministry at the church I love. But, if I wasn't a mom, I think my dream job would be to be a publicist for either a high-ranking political figure or national non-profit. Before I had babies, I was a publicist for "celebrity" doctors, and love working with TV producers, and writers to "make the news go 'round"- To do the same for a person or cause I have passion for, would be a great roller coaster ride!

1. Favorite Bible Verse:

  -Proverbs 3:5-6  "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;  in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." 

2. Hobby?

  -Who has time for a hobby with small kids?  What I dream about doing is photography, reading a book (not a children's book), country dancing, and sewing... not in any particular order. 

3. Most played song on iTunes/iPod:

  -Anything Country... but I turn it up and sign outloud when I hear  Little Big Town – “Pontoon”... maybe because it's summer... maybe because we have been hanging at the lake most of the summer... or maybe its because it is just a song about enjoying the moment and being together.

4. Dream Job:

  -Being a mom and a teacher... I have accomplished both... enjoying the perks of a stay at home mom for a year...blessed to be and do both!

5. Title of the Autobiography of your life:

  -Be Patient, God Isn't Finished With Me Yet
