Emmanuel United Methodist Church

Jen has a Bachelor’s Degree in Early Childhood education and years of experience in children, youth, and family ministries. Her family lives in Dauphin, PA. My husband is Alex and we have two children Annabelle (7) and Oliver (3). We also have a very loved furbaby, named Princess Marvel.
We are not the best at resting during this time in our lives, we love to be outside riding scooters, bikes, swimming and hanging out together. If you ever have any questions and would like to reach out I would be happy to talk with you.

We are here to welcome, support and show genuine love and concern for all. 

Ashley was born on a farm in a small town outside Chicago, Illinois. She later moved to Pennsylvania when she was about 8 years old.   She previously worked as the Office Manager, Bookkeeper, and Accountant for a small company in Harrisburg and worked closely with the White House and the United States Embassy's.

   Ashley decided to take a step back from the corporate world to spend more time with her beautiful family of five and two crazy dogs!
Ashley loves to be outside, camping, hiking, and anything that the entire family is involved in. Her 3 kids Lauren 10, Ethan 12, Reesa 14 and her fiancé Seth keep her on her toes.
