Golden and Noble Works


“A wife too should regard her duties in the same light, as she suckles the child, rocks and bathes it, and cares for it in other ways; and as she busies herself with other duties and renders help and obedience to her husband. These are truly golden and noble works."
Martin Luther

Meet Kathy

Hi. My name is Kathy Feusse. I have grown up Lutheran all my life. My father was a Lutheran Minister, so I grew up a PK and now I am a PW. I am a 1990 graduate of Concordia Seward in the Elementary Education program. I taught school in Hamilton, Ohio and St. Louis, MO...which is where I met my great husband Dan. While he was going to Sem we were set up on a blind date...and, about 5 months later we were engaged and planning a June wedding ( June 29, 1996) just a few months before going to Vicarage to Arkansas.
And now nearly 15 years later, I can gladly say I have lived in Clearwater longer than I have lived in one place ever in my life...13 years!!!

God has blessed Dan and I with 3 wonderful children. Hannah age 10, Matthew age 9 and Nathan age 6. I have always stayed home with the kids, but in the fall of 2008, the Lord put the idea in our heads that Homeschooling would be right for our family, so in January 2009 we began our homeschooling journey and have loved nearly every minute of it.

In my "spare time" I love gardening and creating new and exciting flower gardens in my yard with my Master Gardener friend from church, I try to find time to scrapbook and love directing the adult and children's vocal and hand chime choirs at church. I enjoy baking and when my patience level is good, I love having my daughter join me. We just bought a camper last fall and as a family we are looking forward to using it in the spring and summer.

Thank you Aubri for getting this blog started. I am looking forward to learning more about you gals and hoping we can inspire each other to be the best we can in the vocations the Lord has put us in.

  1. Hmmm, I'm sure this blog could use some Homeschooling and Gardening tips! Hint hint.

  3. Ain't it great to be a PK and then marry a pastor? I love how others think this vocation is "easier" for me because I grew up in a pastor's family.

  4. Kristi and Kathy: YES! Please write something about the PK-to-PW shift--the stereotypes are endless! You can dissolve the myths here!

    Kathy: is that an accordian?! AWESOME! We love polkas!

  5. The PK-to-PW seems an interesting topic. I was an Air Force Brat and always said I would NEVER marry a man in the military! I didn't think I'd marry a pastor either, but what did I know!?

    I sometimes think about my daughters and what I would say if they were going to marry a pastor or my son BE a pastor. There are so MANY blessings about this call and also burdens that I don't know if I want my children to have. But all our calls have blessings and burdens and really most of the time I think it would be a wonderful thing for them to find a "pastor husband". I'm just mussing out loud here, your comments got me doing that. Sorry!

  6. Hannah has been playing the accordian for over a year and it has been so much fun. A lady in our congregation is teaching her. WE love polkas at our home too.
