The Sheepfold recently celebrated the retirement of one of our long-time staff members, Kathy; she served at the Sheepfold faithfully for over 30 years!
Kathy is a tender-hearted child of God. She is truly selfless and never self-serving, always putting others before herself and shining brightly in this dark world. She exhibited the fruits of the Spirit in all that she did. Like our Founder, Fran Lundquist, she was gifted in discernment and kindness. She extended her mother-like wisdom, grace and heart to all she met.
When Kathy started working at the Sheepfold, she worked out of the Tustin office as the Volunteer Coordinator. Over time her role shifted to coordinating intake of new residents, talking to women in crisis on the phone and conducting in-person interviews; she met with hundreds of families over the years, offering her warmth to all of them.
Kathy was also the organizer and planner of all things “fun” for Sheepfold! She was the elf behind our Adopt A Family program, she organized picnics and pool parties for our residents, and planned staff parties. She also worked diligently to make sure our monthly newsletter was written, edited, printed, and sent out on time each and every month for many, many years.
The Sheepfold has been blessed to have her as such an imperative part of the ministry and is grateful for her servant-hearted spirit.
Kathy, thank you for your faithful service to the Lord!
