Redefining Retirement – Keeping the Faith
Meet Ordained Minister and Author Liz Cornett
After a 30-year career as a general education elementary school teacher and special education teacher, Liz Cornett packed her bags and headed out to be closer to her sister in Arizona on the same day she retired in June 2006. The terrific weather and the chance to be close to family were just what she needed.
At first, Liz worked several retail jobs and even went back to the classroom for a short time. She got involved in a church and found an instant community. The Holy Scriptures inspired her, and she made the decision to enroll in ministry school.
