According to her bio information at www.krisgoertzen.com, “Kris Goertzen is truly living her life’s dream! She is happily married to her favorite pastor, she has three beautiful children who love Christ and she has the honor of ministering to women across the globe. ... Her local ministry is based at Grace Bible Church in Hutchinson, where her husband has been the senior pastor since 1995.”


This event is sponsored by Live Like Jesus Today Ministries, the work of Bryant “Buzz” and Clifann Birney, Ellinwood. The Birneys say their aim is to build long-term relationships and to grow the Kingdom of God.
