Hi, I am Janet Crouch and I am married to my husband, D.A.  We have two wonderful adult children.  Our daughter is Tiffanie, who is married to Chris, and they have given us 3 beautiful grandchildren:  Addison (12), Preston (10), and Andrew (7).   Our son is Kevin, who is married to Kristen, and they will bless us with our next grandson this Fall.

My family owns Ideal Poultry Breeding Farms, Inc, a poultry hatchery in Cameron.  My Grandfather started the business in 1937 and I have been Vice President since 1986.  My work consists mostly of accounting, sales, and shipping.

I am a member of Abiding Savior Lutheran Church in Cameron, TX  where I currently serve on the church council board as treasurer.   

I began my Via de Cristo journey as a pilgrim on Weekend #27 at Lutherhill in the Fall of 1997.  It was a women’s weekend, and I sat at the Table of St. Mary.  The verse for the weekend was “The Joy of the Lord is my Strength”.  

I have served in many, many different areas since 2005, including Rector for weekend #80, in the Hill Country with Texas Lutheran Via de Cristo and as Rector for weekend #4 with our Texas Gulf Coast Via de Cristo.  I served 2 years as treasurer for the Texas Lutheran Via de Cristo Secretariat just prior to serving 3 years as treasurer for the Texas Gulf Coast Secretariat.  I am currently holding the position of Lay Director for TGCVdC.

In addition, I have served as Registration Chairperson and Housing Chairperson for the National Gathering in 2022.  Our Secretariat also was host to an Ultreya for Region 3 in the Fall of 2022 after the National Gathering.

I absolutely love Via de Cristo and have enjoyed serving with so many people across region 3 and the nation over the years.  I feel very blessed to call them my friends.  God has blessed me with being able to serve others and I look forward to being able to serve in the Via de Cristo community for many years to come.
