PERSONAL:
My name is Roxanne Mulder.
I turned 32 in September 09.
I live in Lompoc with my husband Michael
and my daughters Olivia (6 yrs old), Isabella (5 yrs old) and Sonya (2 yrs old).
We are also expecting a baby boy in January.


FAITH:
I currently attend Calvary Baptist of Lompoc. But have been studying and learning about the Messianic movement for the last few months and am very interested in learning more!
My favorite Bible passage is Psalms 42:1-2
I became a believer when I was 8. I have only been learning the Hebrew perspective for a few months now, and I am learning on my own. I am so excited to study and learn more. So far I have relied mainly on the internet for guidance, but have been searching for other Messianic believers.


OTHER:
As far as hobbies, I love to study the Bible and discuss it with others. I also love cooking, baking, gardening and reading when I get the time to do it. 3 children under the age of 6 and a baby that keeps trying to send me into early labor keep me from many of my hobbies!

I am very excited to have found a local group of like minded believers and hope to be able to attend a meeting soon!



Shalom!
