BIOSKETCH: Pregnancy Solutions and services is a 501C3 nonprofit
organization started in 1996. In 2004 they began the nations first mobile ultrasound unit. Many women have chosen life for their babies and chosen eternal life with Christ because of the ministry. They are starting to promote the ministry on a nation wide level with a new organization called Image Clear Ultrasound National.
Wayne is the Executive Director of Pregnancy Solutions & Services. He grew up in rural Geauga County intent on becoming a vocal musician. His first job was teaching music at a Christian school in the inner city of Cleveland. Wayne has been blessed to oversee the stewardship of the mobile ultrasound ministry operated by the pregnancy center and is thrilled to see it growing and becoming a stable ministry.
Malinda grew up on the near west side of Cleveland, majored in History and started teaching at a Christian school in the inner city of Cleveland. It was at that Christian school that Wayne and Malinda met, and joined in their pursuit of God's plan for their lives. They served together as teachers and in the youth ministry at the church which hosted the school. God used them greatly to grow the youth program. They left the school to pursue ministry full time in Wayne County. After serving 5 years in the capacity of Music and CE pastor at a local church, God changed the direction of their lives. Through trials and blessings, He brought them to a new place and to a new ministry. Pregnancy center ministry was never in their hopes and dreams, but it was in God's plans for them. Nine years ago, Wayne and Malinda were told by doctors that they would most likely never be able to produce children. After years of disappointment with that situation, God miraculously granted them two children. Malinda has found miraculous blessing in the many roles of mothering Lillian and Sofia
