The Grow with Me (GwM) Team is all volunteer, from Table Mentors to technology to teaching. We work from our homes on personal laptops and pick up GwM mail from a PO Box. As we endeavor to support the growing needs of the ministry, we thank you for your grace should you experience any gaps. Our desire is to serve with excellence as giving to the LORD.
Beyond the Team you see on this page, there are hundreds of people who serve with us each semester as Table Mentors, Assistants to the Leadership Team and our A-Team; add to that church and community hosts, prayer warriors, financial donors, and our spouses and families. Thanks goes to each one — without the contribution of these amazing people, this ministry could not exist and impact lives and families as it does.

Amy first attended Grow with Me in 2012 and has been part of the ministry ever since. She and her husband, Jeff, have been married over 35 years, have two daughters, and are enjoying this chapter in life as grandparents. Amy grew up in Christian ministry, but it was not until she attended Grow with Me that she fully grasped the vast difference between gaining knowledge of God versus pursuing a relationship with Him. Amy’s desire is that every woman who comes to Grow with Me will experience the transforming power of a vibrant and growing personal relationship with the Lord. “I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me” John 10:14
