OurFounders

Kelly Townsend

- Originally founded Cascade in 2001, with a vision to create

organization that was Bible-based, and dedicated to bringing glory to Jesus

Christ

through the miracle of birth.

Jennifer VanderLaan

- Jennifer became very instrumental early on, in the

development of the certification process and curriculum, active and dedicated

the furtherance of Cascade by ongoing telephone conferencing with Kelly.

Petar-Krešimir Hodžic M.D., CIMI

- Dr. Hodžic became involved with

Cascade

in late 2002, after translating Christ Centered Childbirth for Kelly

Townsend. His

vast knowledge of prenatal communication and his dedication

to expecting

couples has proven to be an invaluable asset to Cascade, as well

as his influential

presence in Europe.

Mandy Aiyanyor

- Mandy has been an instrumental prayer warrior and

edification warrior, and is strategically placed by the hand of the Lord in the

center of the most diverse neighborhood in our country. She has proven herself

to be led in the Spirit and her passionate boldness is greatly appreciated and

valued at Cascade.

Anne Boyd

- Anne has been consistently available for administrative counsel,

prayer, and support. Her and her husband's vast knowledge of non-profit law is

without a doubt very necessary for our survival.

Although the founders are only numbered at five, there are countless hearts who

have contributed and supported Cascade. If you are interested in serving on the

Board, please prayerfully seek the Lord's will and get in touch with one of us to

let us know of your heart. WE LOVE ALL OF YOU!
