Elisa Laird
Co-Office Manager

Elisa, along with Dawn – her partner in crime, helps
run the Grace Office. Her responsibilities include
greeting those who visit us during the week,
answering phones, and coordinating the day-to-day
operations of the office.

On her day off, you can find her curled up with a
good book or watching an old movie – when she
isn't working with her husband, Ray, on some home
improvement project; playing Rescue Heroes or
Star Wars with her older son, Aidan; or entertaining
her younger son, Toby, in his exersaucer. Elisa
loves to write and to act. She also loves kids and
serves as volunteer director of the drama team for KidStuf – our midweek program for elementary
children and their families.

Elisa has a bachelor's degree in magazine journalism
from Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois.
After a few years of working for a publishing
company, Elisa joined the Grace staff in March 2006.

"Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what
we will be has not yet been made known. But we know
that when he appears, we shall be like him, for we
shall see him as he is." (1 John 3:2)
