Bonnie moved to Texas four years ago from Salinas, California where she was ordained to the permanent diaconate in 1999.

She served at Holy Trinity at that time, and afterwards at St. Matthew's Cathedral. She is now delighted to return to Rockwall/Heath and this parish family.  She serves the Diocese as a Safe Church Trainer and as ecumenical liaison on the local, state and national level.  She will be assisting Fr. Getz with pastoral care and with the Eucharistic Visitors. 

Bonnie is a grandmother to six and delighted that they are all in the Dallas area. She lives with her husband Chuck, a retired meteorologist, in Rowlett and loves the outdoors and water sports.  Additionally, she is a history and travel buff. 

 

 Deacon Bonnie will be leading a grief recovery support group, which will begin the first week of September.  This group will be for anyone who has suffered the loss of a loved one and would like to share Scripture, discussion, prayer, and mutual support. Deacon Bonnie is asking anyone who is interested to call the church office and register, or just show up.  The group will meet on Thursdays at 4:00 in the afternoon in the parish hall. The group is open to parishioners and other interested persons. Even if you have already attended a grief recovery group, you are urged to revisit the rich spiritual inspiration and comfort that this group offers.
