ChristNet  A Partnership of Churches Serving the Homeless

Who We Are:

ChristNet Center is possible only because of the tireless efforts of our volunteers. They are the backbone of our ministry to the homeless population in the Downriver area. Our Board of Directors also give countless hours to the operation and administration of ChristNet Center. We have four paid staff members: an Executive Director, two Daytime Program co-managers (one who also serves as our Intake Coordinator), and a Case Manager.

Our Board of Directors:
Terry Morreau
President

Terry, along with her husband Bill, are members at Sacred Heart Catholic Church on Grosse Ile. Terry also serves as a Board member of the Wayne Metro Agency as well as chairing the Christnet New Board Member committee.
Janice Baynai
Vice-President

Janice began with ChristNet as a volunteer at our intake center. She became a board member in 2006 and was elected as the Vice-President for the 2008-2009 season. Janice is also a Field Vice-President for McKesson Corporation. Janice and her husband Gerry attend Faith United Methodist Church in Trenton.
Rebecca Markey
Treasurer

Rebecca is our accountant and treasurer. She records your donations and keeps the bills paid so that our guests are able to benefit from ChristNet services. Rebecca and her husband Aaron are members at St. Paul United Church of Christ in Taylor.
Sue Pine
Secretary

Sue began with ChristNet over ten years ago. She continues to serve as an intake volunteer and board member. Sue is also the host Site coordinator for her church, the Trenton Church of Christ.
