Casey coordinates all things related to pastoral care, groups and classes as well as some of the Restore retreat needs.

"I enjoy all the parts of my job and bringing order to things, but I feel especially honored when I have the chance to sit with someone who is going through something difficult and to offer comfort and support as they walk through it," Casey said.

Born and raised in Green Bay, Casey graduated from East High School and later in life earned her associate's degree in Counseling and Human Services from NWTC and bachelor's degree in Social Work from UWGB.

Casey grew up in the church and made a decision to follow Christ at an early age but said a firm commitment didn’t come until her 20s when she felt a genuine need for a savior.

Casey served on the Crossroads Community Church staff for four years beginning in 2015 and joined the GBCC GO staff in 2019. After stepping away from GBCC for a season, she returned in 2021 in her role as pastoral care coordinator.

Casey has five children: Kaya, Anya, Abe, Eloise and Norah. She has a love for animals as evidenced by her cat, dog and various fish, chickens and lizards.

Casey gets energized by going on adventures with her kids. She also enjoys hiking, soaking up the sun, reading a good book and combing for rocks along the shore. "I find peace and experience God the most while enjoying nature," she said.

With a love for overseas travel Casey hopes to one day visit all seven continents -- she is up to four so far.

Casey said one of her greatest investments has been working to learn about her personal story. "Once you learn who you are, how you are gifted and what you were created to do, life becomes clear and so much more fulfilling," she said. "Never stop learning."
