Why is the ministry called Handle with Care?

I am Leann Woelk, a child of the One True God. I am a daughter, sister, and friend but my most important roles are that of wife to Kevin for 35 years and mom to Brendyn andJaden, mother in law to Meaghan and a grandmother to my little Aurora.  I delight in the small things in life, find fun in the ordinary and love to laugh through all life’s ups and downs. My favourite thing to do is spend time with my family, talking and laughing together with our dogs Sadie, Harlow and Wilson running circles around the living room.

Children's Ministry is where my heart has been for 30 years.  I have a passion for teaching God's word and to teach how to recognize His voice by using whimsical creativity and thrifty practicality in object lessons, games, songs, declarations and creative expressions of worship. I love teaching the kids along side their family teaching them biblical truths and foundations of their faith.   

• I worked for two decades in volunteer positions in Children’s Ministry in small churches before finally getting a paid position. 
• I've worked in the local church, and led with teams at Family Camp for 12 years. With Handle with Care, I create digital content, coach CM Leaders, consult with churches and speak internationally. 
• I served with the PAOC ABNWT District as the Children’s Ministry Specialist with 120 churches in vitalization and directing Children's Ministry Conferences and week-long, overnight Kids Camp.  
• I serve as the Next Gen Children's Coordinator for the PAOC.
