Mrs. Mardi Collier
Mardi Collier is a wife, mother, and grandmother who enjoys serving alongside her husband, Ken Collier, the president of THE WILDS Christian Camp and Conference Center. She supervises the camp Craft Shop, is involved with the ladies’ ministries in her local church, and enjoys the privilege of speaking to women about topics that concern them.  Mardi’s desire is to share the truths of the Bible in an honest, practical way and to help, encourage, and challenge ladies to grow in their relationship with God.

Mrs. JoAnne Neiner
JoAnne has been a pastor's wife for 30 years. Twenty-five years ago, she assisted her husband, Doug, in planting Cornerstone Baptist Church, in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. In 2001 she retired after eleven years of homeschooling their three children, all of whom have graduated from Bible colleges, and are serving the Lord in New England local church ministries with their spouses. She is thrilled to see the next generation --- her grandchildren--- being brought up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.  In addition to her own role as a pastor’s wife, JoAnne is the coordinator for the Hope in Crisis woman's ministry in her church.  She is blessed when she has the opportunity to speak publicly, for her greatest burden is in ministering biblical hope to women in the areas of spiritual need, home management, personal crisis, and in-depth Bible study.

Mrs. Brenda Love
Mrs. Love is the wife of Pastor Mark Love of Colchester Bible Baptist Church in Colchester, CT.  The Loves have been serving at CBBC since July of 2006.  Before coming to Connecticut, Brenda worked for twenty-two years alongside her husband in a full-time camping ministry at Camp CoBeAc in Prudenville, Michigan.  Brenda now teaches High School English at Emmanuel Christian Academy.
