Congratulations, Amy Barkman!


Congratulations to Amy Barkman, this week's photo and essay winner.

Amy Barkman is the Founder/Director of Voice of Joy Ministries 1979, pastor of Mortonsville United Methodist Church since 1998, and member of the American Association of Christian Counselors since 1987.

She’s a happily married mother of three daughters, stepmother of two daughters and proud grandmother of 13 grandchildren.

Amy loves to study the Bible and digging into Hebrew and Greek word studies. She enjoys prayer counseling with people who truly want their freedom to be one with Jesus Christ.

For fun, she loves reading cozy murder mysteries and traveling, especially to England where she’s been twice. She belongs to a Tudor interest e-mail group centered on Anne Boleyn and collects fiction and non-fiction about this second wife of Henry VIII as well as about other English monarchs.

She is also a writer, publishing a variety of pieces; she wrote a newspaper humor column for three years.

Amy says, “Above all I love Jesus and think of myself as one who ‘loves much because she has been forgiven much.’”
