Debby is passionate about equipping women for ministry, for making disciples who make disciples. It is her privilege to teach, train and coach women on the local, district and national level of our association, the EFCA. She has been active for close to 40 years at Oakwood Church in Hartland, Wisconsin. Debby received her Masters in Christian Studies from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School and has authored and edited resources on disciple-making, as well as writing on other topics for magazine publications. She currently serves on the national board of directors for the EFCA.

Debby and her husband, George, have two incredible granddaughters. She and George share a love of hiking and backpacking and have trekked Mt. Everest…and more recently, hiked the Canadian Rockies via helicopter. Just ask her how her “shortness” worked with the helicopter.
