I went to college in Muskegon, Michigan and received a Bachelor degree in Business Administration. I was married to Jeff Raatz in 1990. I worked at an electrical supply company for approx. 10 years and then quit working when my first daughter, Samantha, turned 3. When she was four and our second daughter, Robyn, was 2 months old, God called us out of Michigan to work in a Christian ministry in Richmond, Indiana called New Creations, which is a ministry for troubled teens. We now been in Indiana for 3 years and are very busy with our family and the ministry.
