Lori Dale graduated with an elementary education degree from Northwestern College, a Christian college in St. Paul, MN, where she met and married her husband, Tim. Prior to starting a family, she taught first and second grades for seven years in public and Christian school settings. Mrs. Dale was blessed to spend ten years at home with her two sons, Nate and Alex, while volunteering extensively at her church. She has taught in the children’s church, written a children’s church curriculum, and served as the K-5th Children’s Ministry Director at Calvary Chapel. Since that time, Mrs. Dale has also taken joy in using her gift of teaching here at RECA and is encouraged by her favorite verse, Deuteronomy 31:8, “And the LORD, He is the one who goes before you. He will be with you, He will not leave you nor forsake you; do not fear nor be dismayed.”
