Her school days in a Catholic environment is where she learned about overseas missionaries and their work walking in the footsteps of Jesus, it was those profound experiences then, that led to her decision to do something similar hence her life today traveling to different parts of the world wherever Christ takes her.

In 1972 she became a nurse a decision she has never regretted, her experience working in numerous sections of the health system has enriched her life both professionally and spiritually. It is these facets of her life that form the core of who and what she is today, but more so why she does what she does today.

Vicki has been married to Rick for more than fifty years, she has two grown up children and six wonderful grandchildren, who outside the realms of traveling for Christ to support those less fortunate than herself and writing, keep her busy.

The Book

The series is about the experiences of one woman’s willingness to follow Christ wherever he leads.

This is the third book in the ‘Really, God ‘series, following on from her spiritual exploits in Bangladesh and South Africa. Twenty-three chronologically laid out chapters set out Vicki’s undertakings in Guatemala, this time to build well sites to provide clean fresh water to some of Guatemala’s poorest mountainous communities. Of course, being a retired nurse, she brings some of her medical expertise to carefully set-up clinics. What Vicki encounters along the way enriches her own beliefs in God and on numerous occasions throughout the book you see her sense of gratitude to God for her lifestyle in comparison to what she sees unfolding before her eyes as she criss-crosses Guatemala. Faith, adventure and a determination to follow Gods’ calling are at the heart of this book and series.
