Laura Penner
I’ve been on the Place of Refuge board for several years now and have been the Vice-Chair for the past couple of years.
What caught my interest is that I like the fact that we are working together with a number of different churches and agencies (MCC & HFFS) on an important project in our neighbourhood. I like the idea of working together with people who are trying to overcome addictions.
This is the first time I have become involved in a project similar to this. Other involvements for me in the church include teaching the children in our Children’s Worship time, as well as being chair of our congregation’s Church Council.
In the workforce, I interview people so as to determine if their company quality and environmental management systems meet international standards.
