Pastor Mike and his wife Rebecca both graduated from the University of Michigan with degrees in Actuarial Mathematics.  They were married in 1991, and received "hands-on" training for the work of the ministry by the local church

(NW Chicago area) over two decades.

​

During this time, they were also part of the regular everyday workforce 

in the fields of Actuarial Pension & Insurance work as well as Medical Device Software  Engineering.

​

Mike and Becky both love reading, playing & teaching music (classical guitar & piano), cooking, math & science subjects, and learning new things in general.

​

All four of their children are homeschooled with two already graduated and two still in the works.  Their children have also cultivated a family love for basketball and baseball over the years, and the family is actively involved in two solid local homeschool coops, one in music, and another for team sports.
