We are excited to welcome our new Program Coordinator, Annie!

Annie Ripley Householder joined the staff at Faith In Action at the end of September 2026 after retiring from Edward Jones Investments. As our Program Coordinator, Annie helps ensure our Care Receivers, with the support of our dedicated volunteers, are able to meet their grocery shopping needs. In addition to coordinating the grocery shopping program, she also assists with supporting other Faith In Action programs and services, helping us continue our mission of serving older adults in our community. In her spare time, Annie is a sports enthusiast, most notably a long-suffering Cubs fan. She is very involved with her church and enjoys crocheting when she’s not off visiting family and friends in Florida and other such exotic places.

We had a great time this week at the Bloomington Senior Showcase! We love being able to connect with our community.
