I had the honor of working with Annie on a mom’s Bible Study. It started with about 5 moms and over the course of a few years our mailing list grew to over 30. It developed strong friendships that were rooted in Faith. Our spiritual lives widened and grew as we all ventured deeper into our own interior castles together. Annie’s ability to gently lead our group was truly a gift to behold. She led with joy, humility, and grace. She was thorough, clear, and examined every concern with prayer and wisdom. Wherever Annie goes, a small and quiet flame seems to shoot out and ignite everything surrounding it, lighting the world on fire.
