- Hummingbirds are erratic and they shift positions quickly.
- When a hummingbird appears near you, they are reflecting the positive side of life by showing you the joy in small things. It’s important that you honor the small things in life and let go of the heavy toxic ones.
- The hummingbird is tireless in its pursuit of finding sweetness. They appear in our lives to remind us of staying on track for what we want while enjoying the process. Hummingbirds can travel over 2000 miles from Central America to North America every year just to reach their destination.
- This is also a reminder of pursuing your dreams and not allowing obstacles to stop you regardless of the distance.

Everytime I saw you I had to give you a big bear hug and lift you up. Even though sometimes months or years would go by, you knew that I would always lift you up when I saw you. As much as I did that physically to you, your joy and your love for Christ always lifted me up spiritually. Everytime we led worship with Mission One and you were there I was always at peace because I knew that you had a true heart of worship and you would sing your heart out. That always encouraged me to keep going and to keep lifting His name above all else. I love you girl, I miss you, and I can’t wait to lift you up off your feet again soon..... less

We always had such great conversations that were seasoned with grace and meaning! You were such a lovely woman of the Lord and I always looked up to you for that!
One memory that will always stick with us is when we were in Florida together with me you Janina and Dana and we were swimming in the beautiful Atlantic and we barely made it to shore because we were laughing so hard while telling stories!
We love you Christine! Your joy was contagious and you had a life lived beautifully ♥️ Thank you for everything you brought to this world. I will miss you sweet cousin
Dear Christine, I will always remember your big smile, your strong faith and loving heart! Your love for Jesus and appetite for life were contagious and I am so blessed & grateful to have met you in this life. I cannot wait for the day we meet again! 💔💔💔

Her faith, her love for others and her great appetite for life and adventure were palpable in all she did. There was never a dull moment with her. She had the amazing ability to make friends with anyone and everyone which made her so loved by so many. She was the type of friend who would save the last savory bites of her meal and give it to you. There’s too many memories across too many years to write down and honor all that Christine was. Until we meet again, I love you and will forever hold you in my heart ❤️ less
It was not unusual for Christine to have been surrounded by many friends/family.. Good times we had together. Thank you for the laughs and hospitality! Rest In Peace dear Christine.

She and Mark were always close to our hears, and right now our hearts are breaking with the loss of such a lovely young lady... She brought so much to this world and I know would've continued to do great things! But we have faith that the Lord knew best why He wanted her home with Him... RIP sweet Christine... less
Christine thank you for your hospitality. I remember our trip to the Palace of Parliament in Bucharest Romania. Blessed conversations. The kids also had a blast with you and Mark.

It was the beginning of a whole new chapter in my life and is still one of the most memorable trips I've ever taken. I can still vividly remember the lighting strikes above us in the dark early hours as we hiked through the Havasu canyon. You are now with your creator, the one who created the wonders of this earth you so fondly traveled to. Thank you for sharing part of your life with us. less
