Francie Lorey

For 30 years, Francie has served as my executive secretary at Joni and Friends – but I like to call her “my hands.” Whether it’s researching, writing, or simply typing next to me at the computer (the woman can hack out 107 words per minute), Francie and I work together almost seamlessly. For many years Francie served as my traveling companion; she took me to Family Retreats, Wheels for the World trips, and countless other cities and countries across the globe. I often laugh to her, “You’re one of the few people I know who works as hard as I do!” Because of her strong work ethic and love for Christ, Francie’s quite an inspiration!
