Linda Wingreen, In His Arms (IHA) Director
Hi, I’m Linda Wingreen the Director of In His Arms. The Lord led me here 8 years ago where I took on the position as teacher in the 3-4 yr. old classroom. I was blessed each and everyday by the children’s smiles and eagerness to learn new things. I am currently in my 4th year of directing where again, I am blessed to watch God’s Masterpieces grow both physically and socially. My husband Scott and I will be married 22 years. We have three children, Andrew-21, Michelle-18, both attending college, and Jennifer-14. It has been amazing to see God’s hands in all that happens at IHA. His presence is here daily-watching, guiding and loving all that enter through the door.
