For the last 14 years, I have been blessed to work with Kurt and April learning how to truly help others. I have always loved building things so God has led me to different parts of the world helping others with building projects. My passion is to help others break the chains of poverty, share the love of Jesus, and build relationships, sharing with those in poverty that we all have purpose and worth.

I am blessed to be a stay-at-home mom while continuing my education in business administration project management. I proudly serve the Lord as a member of our women's ministry committee at my church. I am led to seek justice for those suffering. With LST, I believe the Lord's work will be fulfilled through the education we provide, with your help!

Janelle Simoneau, Board Treasurer
My name is Janelle Simoneau and I am the treasurer of LST. I am retired and love
camping, reading and playing June’s Journey. I am a numbers person. So when
April approached me about this position, I jumped at the opportunity to minister
in this way. (After praying about it of course.) I’m excited to see how God will use
this organization.
Peter & Katherine Hearne, Pastors & Board Advisors
Ashton Stone, Board Secretary
Janelle Simoneau, Board Treasurer
Peter and Katherine Hearne are the Pastors of Linaje Escogido Comayagua in Comayagua, Honduras. They have been serving in the community for many years. They are the feet on the ground, supplying the Board with information and advising as to what is needed, next steps and providing the manpower to ensure the needs are met. Without the advice of these critical team members, our Foundation could not operate.
