Pre-School Director
Jacklyn Brubaker
Hello! My name is Jacklyn, and I work with the children of Grace as the Co-Director of Children's Ministry along with Tonia. I am finishing up my B.S. degree in Elementary Education (Pk - 6th grade) at UWO. I have always had a heart for children, and I really enjoy helping the kids get to know their God.
My husband, Derek, and I moved to Wisconsin six years ago. We are expecting our first child, and are so excited about this wonderful blessing from the Lord. We have two pit bulls, Ryan and Jenna. Besides our involvement at Grace, we are also very involved with dog rescue. We have a passion for it! I enjoy photography and digital scrapbooking and hanging out with my best friend...Derek. Thanks for learning more about me!!
Secretary
Angela Becker
Work phone: 232-5683
My name is Angela and I have lived in Wisconsin for almost 4 years. Actually, it will be 4 years in August 2008. Prior to moving here I lived in Germany with my husband Stefan for approximately 9 years. Before that I spent my whole childhood in South Africa, where my parents live. We have 2 children, Tyler who is 10 and Naomi who is 4 years old. In South Africa I attended Rhema Bible church and then moved to a smaller non-denominational church, which felt more like a family. That is actually why I loved Grace Chapel because it was small and personal, and the congregation is very caring. God brought us here and it is our home away from home.
Treasurer
Nancy Rhyner
"We have been attending Grace for about 7 years. We attended a Methodist Church prior to Grace Chapel. For the past 15 years I have been mostly involved in Children’s ministry. The treasurer position is a new adventure for me. I do have a business degree from the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee and I am very organized so being treasurer is not an overwhelming stretch. The hardest part of being treasurer is the monthly reports, which take a couple of hours to complete – more if you find a mistake. (That’s when it gets tricky!) I am married to Chris and we have three daughters, Alicia; 18, Stephanie; 16, and Sarah; 11. Alicia will be attending Ripon College this fall, Stephanie is a Sophomore at Oshkosh West, and Sarah is a 6th grader at Oshkosh Christian School."
Custodian
Dawn Ratzburg
I've been a part of Grace Chapel as a member for quite awhile now and have served as a custodian since 2000. I enjoy doing this type of work so it makes my position here very comfortable. I'm also employed through the Oshkosh Area School District as a teacher's assistant for the cognitive disabled and since I've always wanted to work with special needs children this job is an answer to prayer. I love God, music, the outdoors, arts & crafts and so much more. I have two grown children, a son-in-law and two grandchildren. My family are special and important to me. Come visit our church sometime, we'll be glad to see you!
