S2E2: Organically Prepared Spiritual Care

Lara is an Associate Director of Student Ministries for InterVarsity's Nurses Christian Fellowship. She lives in Jacksonville, FL with her husband and two cats. After graduating from Michigan State University in 2012, she came on staff with InterVarsity as a campus minister and then area director in southeast Michigan before joining the NCF team. Her hobbies include indoor rock climbing, volleyball, crocheting, and hanging out at the beach.

I serve as the Director of InterVarsity's Nurses Christian Fellowship/USA and Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Christian Nursing. I am married with three adult children and live with my husband and cat in Wichita, Kansas. Bible study is my lifeline; I participate in a weekly, in-depth study that offers accountability and guidance into the Word of God. I love playing the piano, assisting with worship, and exercise at the local YMCA.
