Meet Chaplain Ken Cornish
Ken is a veteran of the United States Air Force and had a long career working in Information Technology. He has served in various areas of ministry over his lifetime as a volunteer. The first call to ministry was in 2003, but doors were not opening to accept that call. 20 years later, God decided it was time to change that. Now widowed, He met and married an amazing woman named Chrisita (see below), with a similar desire to serve God and the community. Ken gave up his IT career and became an ordained chaplain through the International Fellowship of Chaplains. His desire is to serve the community with a focus on seniors, people dealing with grief and loss, hospice, and prison ministry with Kairos International. Now joined together in marriage and a desire to serve the community, Ken and Chrisita founded Faith Walk By Two, as a nonprofit, geared toward meeting community needs.

Meet Alvena Schoenwolf
Alvena has a B.S. degree in Secondary Education and an M.S. in Education and in Clinical Counseling. She has taught public school and started two successful retail companies. One was an incorporated partnership and the other was an individual ownership. She has been both Secretary and President on a board representing a 400 person housing addition. Her passion was working with youth and she started junior high youth programs in Indiana and Kentucky. She began singles groups both in Indiana and Florida to keep college age young people involved in church. During one of these endeavors she came in contact with a troubled young girl and adopted her. She was 12 and reading on the first grade level. After home schooling this child to get her somewhat caught up in school she put her back in public school. This young lady now has an M.S. degree in Social Work and has helped all kinds of troubled youth.
Professionally Alvena started working with computers at NCR headquarters in Dayton, Ohio. She wrote a retail instruction manual to train engineers on retail terminology and environment while taking computer classes. She then wrote an instruction manual for a new software program to train adults on the first gasoline pump to interact with a cash register inside a convenience store environment. Later she became the first woman to be a Director at The First Presbyterian Church in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida and was in charge of technology for their five corporations. Alvena was a systems analyst on the first Artificial intelligence team put together to try and develop an AI program to underwrite insurance claims. She interviewed an underwriter and translated his personal job experience so programmers could write an Artificial Intelligence program to underwrite the first ever Workers Compensation program. When completed this program could underwrite Workers Compensation claims up to 95% without human intervention and was installed in one of the top 10 corporations in the world.
For fun she put together a team of 200 to sew costumes for a pageant telling the story of the life of Jesus. Her hobbies include sewing, art, gardening and of course spending time with her grandson.
