Children’s Ministry (School Age): Tana Albin
My life has been about children’s education. While an academic education is important, a child’s spiritual education is imperative. I began my college education studying early childhood development at Montana State University and later transferred to Wayne State College in Nebraska, where I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Education. I am certified in K-6 education and have taught preschool and K-6th grades in public and private schools. I have spent the most recent years home schooling our youngest children through high school and taking classes to help me better understand Autism Spectrum Disorder.
My husband, Jerry, and I have raised our four children, Chandra (Albin) Stewart, Kaden, Nolen, and Dallas, as well as caring for several foster children. We have six beautiful grandchildren, Daniel, Laela, Bella, Mackenzie, Abel and Asher. Now that our youngest son is through college, I felt I had time to dedicate to other children. I am so happy to be working with the children in the East Hill Children’s Ministry, and I hope I can relate with them and their parents as they raise up their children in the Lord.
