What an absolute honor it is to be a staff member with WDA!  In August of 2016, I was given the opportunity to come on board at Headquarters as the Bookkeeper, and in 2024, I was promoted to Finance Manager.

I was called into missions back in 1997, and I made some detours and prayed for MANY years that the Lord would open doors for me to be back on that path.  This has been a beautiful way the Lord has proven that He never forgets His promises.  I now get to be both IN the field AND help those that are there full-time.  

As the Finance Manager, I strive to make sure all WDA funds are current, correct and that we stay on the good side of the IRS.  I’m part of the HQ team that makes it possible for our missionaries to go overseas and spread God’s unfailing grace and restoration.  Our traveling missionaries don’t need to worry about taxes, salary, donation reporting, etc., so my job allows their minds to rest. It reminds me of how NASCAR drivers have a team that allows them to race effectively. I am not the driver, but I make sure we have the funds to buy the tires and keep the car running like new.  

I am always honored that God chose me to be a member of WDA, and I know that THIS is where I belong.

In 2022, I traveled to Chennai, India and in 2023 I traveled to Nairobi, Kenya. And it is my prayer that I get the opportunity to travel back to Kenya and India and travel to the Philippines and Uganda and Zambia.  

My husband, Brennen, and I live in Newnan, GA, and together we have 6 wonderful children; Steven (23), who lives in AL, Harleigh (22), who lives in KY, Caleb (20), who lives with us along with his fiance and our new grandson, Sarah (20), who lives in NJ, Elizabeth (20), and Joshua (19), who both live in GA along with our beautiful dogs, Lucy, Nala, and Kevin.  Our first grandchild, Wyatt Cash Sutton, will be born in March of 2025 and we are more than thrilled to be upgraded to Bibi and Poppy!! We love both of the churches we attend, Crossroads Church in Sharpsburg, and New City Church in Peachtree City.  We cherish nights at home with our family or going to see the Braves play! Go Braves!

I have personally been through Restoring Your Heart (Processing Pain) three times and have experienced miraculous changes in my life and my home. In 2024, I was given the blessing of going through our new restorative class, “Created with Needs” with all the women of HQ WDA.  God continues to restore the broken places within my life, and I love the person I have become through His grace.

I am sincerely grateful to those who support my family, allowing me to continue to serve WDA and our Lord Jesus.
