Board
Jean Sorenson
President
Jean Sorenson learned about Love INC of South Wood County through Paul Liebherr and was drawn by the hand up vs hand out concept. Jean has been volunteering as an Intake Specialist since August 2018.
"During this time of division in this country, I feel Love INC can provide unity and make a difference in peoples’ lives. I look forward to what we can accomplish together.”
Chuck Bradbury
Vice President
Pastor Chuck Bradbury was on the original Development Board of Love INC in 2016 and then served on the first official board as its President until 2018. He served on the board again in 2022 for nearly 3 years. After recently retiring from nearly 40 years of pastoral ministry experience in the Wisconsin Rapids area, he realized that God was reopening the door to serve once again in the organization he felt privileged to be a part of and experience its growth from vision to reality. He has always had a passion to see churches working together in the community to transform people’s lives, and he believes that Love INC is the best way to make that happen.
Sue Siewert
Secretary
Sue Siewert was asking the Lord to direct her to a place where she could be of help to others. Almost retired, she knew God had something new for her! Sue had been following Love INC of South Wood County since its development stage, and knew many of its volunteers. As a business owner who is active in the community, as well as being a lifelong resident of the area, Sue was seeing the growing needs in Central Wisconsin. She was drawn to the idea of local churches working together for a common goal – to help those that are in need by providing not only the resources they are lacking, but by working with individuals to transform lives in the name of Christ.
Roy Ferkey
Treasurer
Roy Ferkey recently retired as a general contractor after 38 years in his own business. Through the years he learned how to patiently deal with people. He first learned about Love INC when a presentation was given at River Cities Christian Church. Roy appreciated the Love INC mission to help people improve their situation by transformation and not simply by a hand out. Roy has served as elder, Sunday school teacher, handyman, worship team leader, parking lot maintenance, and wherever he was needed. He brings variety to the board.
Steve Stageman
Board Member
Steve retired in January 2020 after being a mechanical design engineer for 42 years. He now lives in Wisconsin Rapids with his wife Lou. He became an Ambassador in 2023 and shortly after started volunteering as a "fix-it guy". He saw first hand how the Love INC ministry of a hand-up not a hand-out worked. He now helps with furniture deliveries and pickups. He feels being on the board was another way he could be God’s helper here at Love INC.
David Wilkinson
Board Member
Dave moved from Illinois 5 years ago after losing his 1st wife in 2008. He has since remarried and was a travelling Registered Nurse. Dave began attending River Cities Christian church in 2018 where he is currently serving as the Head Deacon. His hobbies include pickleball, woodworking, and gardening; hiking, kayaking, and camping to name a few. Dave and Cindy have 5 children and several grandchildren that live in 4 states! Needless to say, they look forward to visiting them all!
Jonna Kronholm
Board Member
When Love INC was in the development stage, a team came to St. Luke’s Church. A volunteer at heart, Jonna loved the concept of lifting up our “neighbors in need” in a dignified way following the Redemptive Compassion principles so they can feel valued and strive toward the life that God intended for them. Jonna has been on the Board previously and serves on several Love INC Committees so has a thorough knowledge of the mission and history of the organization.
Brian Wolosek
Board Member
Brian works in emergency mental health and adult protective services, with a background in retail management and healthcare social work. He became a board member because he felt God telling him he needed to do more with his time and to help advance the Lord's Kingdom. He loves being a dad and is thankful for everything the Lord has done for and with him.
Jeff Hoffman
Board Member
Jeff and his wife, Pat, live in Port Edwards. Jeff has been retired from the banking industry for over 10 years. His career spanned 38 years in banking, plus another 3 years in financial counseling.
Several years ago, Jeff sensed the Holy Spirit leaning on him to share his addiction experience with others who were still caught up in their own struggles. While looking for the right fit, an opportunity came to join a group at Love INC charged with the task of laying the ground work for a new chapter of Celebrate Recovery.
Out of his Celebrate Recovery experience came opportunities to join the Transformational Ministry committee, and attend classes as a discussion leader. Jeff also joined the steering committee for the Love it Again thrift store in 2023. Jeff found these opportunities to be rewarding and well received by those with a need for a hand up in their lives.
