Women's Ministries

My name is Sue Kerrigan and together with Kate Coffee serve as Co-Director of Women's Ministries here at Shoreline Covenant Church. Here's how I got here:  Although I grew up in the church, I was 15 years old before I placed my trust in Jesus Christ. I began serving in the church in various capacities as I pursued an education (BA in English, University of Oregon), worked at various jobs (technical writer, child care center director), got married to Dave and raised 4 children, Janet, Davey, Christian and Kathleen. I began attending Shoreline Covenant with my family in 1993 when my children were young and continued to serve the Lord through this fellowship. I volunteered in Women's Ministries Spiritual Growth Ministry and Outreach Ministry. Kate and I worked together a few years ago as co-leaders of Women's Ministries. I took a break for a few years as I returned to school (AA in Nursing, Everett Community College) and now am an RN in dialysis nursing at Puget Sound Kidney Center. Last fall I accepted the call to serve again in Women's Ministries.
 

Hi! I'm Kate Coffee. My journey with Christ began as I was raised in the Presbyterian church. I asked Jesus into my heart when I was eleven at church camp. I've been at SCC for nineteen years and have been blessed to be involved in a variety of ministries- from working with children, to music as a worship leader and singing with “Voices of Praise” as well as to serving the women of our church family. As a co-director with Sue we keep as our goal the focus on how God would have us minister to women. I am frequently surprised at the ways God uses me and look forward to the coming year as Sue and I work, side by side with our team ministering to the women of Shoreline Covenant.  I also work as a pediatric rheumatology R.N. At Children's Hospital & Regional Medical Center. The areas I enjoy most in my personal life are gardening, reading, having friends over, spending time with family, and seeing what's around the next curve in the road!
 We are continually amazed at the caliber of women the Lord has given us to work with. It is a joy to work alongside so many caring and talented women who are dedicated to serving Jesus Christ.
