Doreen Volk grew up in Grenada with a very imaginative dad. She inherited his gift of storytelling. Through her rebellion she became pregnant, and later on, as a single mom, she moved to Canada to start a new life to leave behind her pain and shame. Her horizon in the new country expanded when she married a young man from the Netherlands. Doreen and her husband John have three children, six grandchildren and were foster parents of over 100 children in 25 years with the Guelph and Wellington County CAS. Further personal growth was obtained by becoming a successful businesswoman with a career in real estate. Her natural ability as a fashion designer is a uniquely attractive quality. Doreen has the gift of visualization that helps her with an idea to create something all on its own, and her gift of creativity as well as home staging. After a serious medical procedure, Doreen had a vision of a person standing at her bedside. This was the beginning of a life-changing encounter with her heavenly Father. Doreen's desire to share the gospel caused her to retire. She had many opportunities in mission, both at home and abroad, to share the love of Jesus. With the encouragement of her husband of 53 years, Doreen has written Walk With Me as a testimony about her life. See less
