My name is Lori Blake.  Although I have an English degree, I spent most of my work life in sales, radio broadcasting, and the legal profession.  In addition to hosting a morning radio show, I also served as interim Production Manager at the Barn Theatre in Minnesota and spent some time on stage as well.  

I am married to Dave Blake who works at Unity Point as a respiratory therapist.  We love music and have played in a music ensemble together for many years.  We also enjoy spending time with our three precious grandchildren, Paige, Landon, and Hayley, bicycling, fishing, gardening and attending many soccer games. 

I grew up in a Christian home and put my faith in Christ when I was a young child.  Through the years, God has shown me how completely and utterly dependent I am on him and that Christ is my greatest treasure. I believe reading good literature is very important.  It helps us understand the world, the people around us and even ourselves more fully.  It is a blessing to work in a place where the Bible is taught and discussed.  I am looking forward to serving at Ankeny Christian Academy, getting to know students and pointing them to Jesus. God is good.  His timing is perfect.
