Grace House

Please join us in welcoming Sarah Olson to the Grace Place Family as the Coordinator for our new Grace House Child Care Program! Sarah comes to us with a Master’s degree in Children’s and Family Ministry from Bethel Seminary. Sarah also possesses a Bachelor’s degree in Studio Art (Art Education) from Winona State University. She very recently moved back to Winona with her husband, Joel, and we were lucky enough to catch her as soon as she did! Sarah and her husband most recently lived in Burnsville, MN where Sarah was the Site Director at New Creations Child Care and Learning Center. Before that, she had been the Director of Hour Kids Walk-in Childcare in North St. Paul, and Children’s Ministry Coordinator at New Life EFC in Hastings, MN. Sarah also spent time as a Direct Care Staff Member for Hope Harbor – Winona, as well as a Children’s Ministry Intern at Pleasant Valley Church in Winona. Since joining us, Sarah has begun working on our Child Care Licensing Application, as well as organizing and preparing some things around the Grace House, as we progress towards the opening of our new Child Care Facility. We could not be happier or more excited to welcome Sarah onto our Leadership Team!
