Susan Kinney
Director of Children & Outreach Ministries
What do you do for fun?
For fun I enjoy teaching dance (tap, jazz and ballet), watching our boys play sports, traveling, and spending time laughing and enjoying life with my family and friends.
How do you live out a faithful life here at New Hope in your role?
I strive to be faithful to Jesus’ commands to serve people. By leading our mission outreach ministry we live out these commands by serving people in our local community and across the globe, however I also get to experience the joy that is leading our children’s ministry program. Jesus showed us what an important part children play in the Kingdom of God, and I pray that with my leadership we produce a program that exemplifies our mission statement. “Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” - Proverbs 22:6
What is your family like?
We have two amazing sons, Austin and Gavin, and we live in Pendleton (just a hop, skip, and a jump away from New Hope). Our Boston Terrier, Polly, rounds out our family and helps balance out the boy:girl ratio in our home!
