Sandra Poff

Publications/History-6th,9th & 12th Grades/Bible-7th & 10th Grades

My name is Sandra Poff and I am really excited to be teaching my first year here at CCA.  I became a follower of Jesus when I was a child and grew up knowing I wanted to spend my life serving God.

I received my BA in Religion from Missouri Baptist University (with concentrations in Philosophical Studies and Historical Theology) in 2003.  In 2010, I graduated with my Masters of Divinity in Christian Education from Missouri Baptist Theological Seminary.

During the last 20 years, I have been blessed to serve with some pretty awesome churches, working with both children and teenagers.  I have been a foster parent for over a decade now and created The Beacon, designed to be a family connection center where we work and minister to a variety of people in our community.  Since coming to Clinton in 2011, I have regularly presented at Chapel and have had one of my foster kiddos attend here.  I try to wake up daily with the prayer of, "Lord, where do you need me today?"  At the beginning of last year I showed up for Chapel, and ended up staying around more and more as a Substitute and part-time Para.  It was such a joy to see God at work and I just kept feeling that I wanted to be at CCA more and more and get to be a part of what He is doing in the lives of our families and students.

I am very excited to be teaching Publications, Bible for 7th and 10th grade and History for 6th, 9th and 12th grade.  These are all topics I am very passionate about, and I hope your children will grow to learn so much with me this year!
