Why you want to talk to her:
- Hospitality | You want to coordinate a stay at the District House or check on hotel reservations for a district meeting.
- Church Reporting | You know you need to fill out an annual report, but some how-to tips would be welcome.
- Financial Reporting | You would love some additional explanation of your quarterly treasurer reports.
- District Funds | You would like someone to explain to your treasurer how the DMB is different than the CM and the GCF (or you’re already wondering what all those letters even stand for).
The last thing Missy was looking for was change. She was already gainfully employed elsewhere, and had recently started a Card My Yard business, so she was even thinking of cutting her hours at her current church administrative job. Good talent is hard to hide, though, and our business manager, Carol Kowalski, spotted it in Missy. Missy and Carol’s daughter are dear friends, so as those grandchildren had birthday parties, Carol and Missy were always at the same parties. Carol witnessed Missy’s work ethic through several past jobs as a payroll clerk, preparing taxes, and other financial responsibilities and knew she would be a good fit for the Midwest District. Missy heard what the role would include and thought, “Yes! This sounds like it would challenge and grow me!” Missy looks forward to assisting the district in the routine financial tasks and still having some extra hours to add to her personal schedule that she didn’t have with her last job. “And,” she admits smiling, “honestly, if it’s a place that Carol is happy with, then it probably would be a good fit for me.”
Missy is married to Marc and has a high school daughter, Madison. In keeping with “M” names, they also have three rescue dogs, Maisey, Melody, and Matilda. Mark is a woodworker, so their farmhouse themed home is filled with refurbished furniture, has a great porch to read a book on, and plenty of space to dream about their next trip to Disney World (we’re talking superfans here). “Disney just makes us happy,” she said, reminiscing about the adventure and wonder of it all. “It’s a time to disconnect from our phones because you don’t want to miss anything you might see at Disneyworld, which gives us plenty of things to talk about as a family.”
The truth?
“God is amazing…”
