Description
Heather is the associate director of Willow Creek Community Church's Global Connections, a ministry working to build a church-wide community of "globally-minded citizens." Their various initiatives around AIDS and global poverty include the "Celebration of Hope," an annual collection of items which recently filled sixteen 40-foot containers with various domestic items to be distributed in four different countries. Heather previously served on staff with Axis, Willow Creek's ministry to the twenty-something generation, supporting that community's value to live out compassion and justice as a lifestyle, not just an act of charity. Before coming to Willow, Heather worked on the marketing and public relations teams for the American Red Cross. She received her undergraduate degree from Taylor University.
