Joni Mandarich
I was raised in Pueblo and grew up at an AG church in town. I attended East High and both SAGU and CSU-P. I am married to a fellow educator and we have three children together. I love serving in Children's Ministry because kids embody a pure heart, faith without restraint and the true joy of the Lord.

power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast
all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power
of Christ may rest upon me.
