Meet RMI’s new Hope for Kidz Coordinator

Barbara Rose, wife of RMI’s VP of Operations Kim Rose, has joined the RMI Family. Since Kim joined RMI 2 1/2 years ago the Lord has been putting a growing desire in their hearts for Barb to be able to join Kim in the ministry. They saw that RMI values teamwork, highly encouraging spouses to minister together as much as possible. RMI even asks spouses to be involved with Board members as much as they can. They weren’t sure when or how God would work it out. Then Barb was unexpectedly laid off from her job in May. As tough as it was, it was a clear open door from the Lord. She joined the RMI Family at the end of May.

It is exciting to see God at work! He orchestrated Barb’s arrival at the time that we needed to replace Amanda Biser (who is leaving to begin the ministry of being a stay-at-home mom in late July) in the Hope for Kidz Program. Barb’s strong organizational skills, meticulous work with details and pleasant personality will be a real asset in the office. She will also be helping out in a number of other areas in the administration.

She and Kim have 2 adult sons and 1 granddaughter. Her loves include riding motorcycles with Kim, sewing, reading and living near the water (which started as a young child growing up near Lake Michigan and then living the last 22 years in Southwest Florida near the Gulf). She enjoys serving in the nursery at church and held a teaching assistant position in the 2 yr. old class for several years. She is currently serving in the 1 yr. old class.

She can be reached at Barbara.Rose@rminet.org. Feel free to drop her a note and welcome her to the family!
