Kirsten Strand is the founder and director of Community 4:12, a community development non-profit associated with Community Christian Church whose purpose is “Uniting People to Restore Communities.” She has been married to Scott for 15 years and have two sons, Erik (11) and Brian (9). They relocated two years ago from Naperville to East Aurora in order to be indigenous servants in the under-resourced community God has called them to. Kirsten enjoys running, biking, being outside on warm, sunny days (still a Florida girl at heart), and evenings at home with her family. You can find her blog at Community 4:12.
