In 1997-1998 I was a missionary in New Jersey where I studied religion intensively and served and taught the people of that community.  I am currently teaching a group of high school students a religion class that meet for 50 minutes a day.  I have also taken an Introduction to Judaism class to better understand the Jewish faith, worship, texts, and traditions. I took a World Religion class in college and as a Spanish major studied the Maya, Aztec, Toltec, and Inca peoples.  I work as a Community Coordinator with exchange students from around the world and have been able to interact with many students and host families from many different faiths. I have learned and grown in my understanding of different religions from the experiences that they have shared.  I have home schooled my children for the past 7 years and as part of our curriculum we have studied and learned about different faiths, cultures, and religious traditions.  We have also attended worship services of other faiths to gain a better understanding of who they are and what they believe.  I love to study history and in reading and studying history you study the religious beliefs and traditions of different civilizations and countries.
