Cara and her husband, Adam, ministered in a small-town church for 14 years before transitioning to the Rural Home Missionary Association Staff where Adam is the Executive Director. The town they live in is small, but sadly not small enough that she can raise chickens. However, she is raising three plucky kids and two cats. Since being saved as a teenager, Cara has been involved with the local church, using her passion for women and intergenerational ministry in church planting and church strengthening and she teaches middle school English.
