Donna is a widow with three grown children and three grandchildren.  She is retired and feels blessed to be with her youngest grandchild during the week and the other two when they’re not in school.  In what’s left of her spare time, she enjoys sewing, hand embroidery, crocheting and doing sudoku puzzles.

Donna has been a member at Christ Church since 2014 and is active in children’s ministry, the Missions Team and most recently, church council.  She enjoys the fellowship of the people at Christ Church and enjoys sharing in their daily lives and the lives of the missionaries and the Good News Clubbers.

Some of Donna’s favorite Bible verses are Isaiah 26:3 and Philippians 4:8 because they give hope and remind us to praise God for all that’s good in the world, because God is good!

I am married to Al Phillips, we are the parents of one daughter, Molly and two granddaughters who all live in Northern Virginia.  I enjoy knitting and crocheting as well as embroidery and have recently learned to tat. In the summer you can find me working in my flower beds or antiquing!

I have attended Christ Church most of my life.  Currently I host ladies of our church and community who enjoy knitting and crocheting.  I also coordinate a book club where we share our love of reading as well as friendships and love of Jesus.  For quite a few years I worked as the Administrative Assistant at Christ Church and enjoyed working with various people and in many ministries throughout the years such as Awana, Women’s Ministry, Christian Education, Outreach and various other committees. 

A few years ago we had a speaker at our church who impressed on me that no matter how old you are, you can be used in the ministry of the church.  I look forward to using my golden years to “finish strong” working for Christ in my church and community.
