Ever since first hearing about CWJC, it’s been a ministry Jacob wanted to be involved with. The combination of spiritual formation with meeting practical, educational and career needs exhibits so clearly the example that Jesus set numerous times, such as teaching the 5,000, but also feeding them and taking care of their needs, or as taught in Matthew 6:25-34 as He says “do not worry about what you will eat or drink… your heavenly Father knows you need these things. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” displaying His recognition and care for the spiritual and practical needs we all have.

After graduating Baylor with a degree in Marketing/Management/Entrepreneurship, she moved to Dallas and on to Washington, DC and entered the Public Relations field. From there she found herself preferring to live in the mountains of northern NM and just vacation in a big city. She and her family moved from Red River, NM where she had a restaurant and catering company along with a home management business. Waco life began with the Midway ISD Food Services, then transitioned to Baylor’s Career and Professional Development Department before landing her dream job with H-E-B. Rhonda most certainly has a passion for education as she was a Homeschool Mom for four years. When her son returned to public school, she began volunteering at the UNM Taos Adult Education Center as a math tutor.

As H-E-B’s Community Coordinator, she is responsible for representing H-E-B outside the store walls. That means she is involved in almost every aspect of the community as she connects with organizations in ways that H-E-B can help them meet their mission goals and serve the community.

Carol Dugat

Carol Dugat

Carol Dugat is a native Wacoan who has served in the Waco community since the late 1980’s on Boards of Directors with Mission Waco, Grassroots, and Right Track Ministries. Her past Waco Trib blog, “What Do You Want” was fueled by her own passion to see East Waco set forward with a makeover. Carol’s deepest passion is to pour out her own spiritual knowledge to anyone who is open to receiving. Carol found herself a young mother at the age of 17 in need of a GED and a supportive network. That blessing came to her through a stenography course that set her on a pathway to work her way up to Executive Assistant to the CEO of Neighborly, formerly The Dwyer Group, where she served for 20-years. Carol’s heart for CWJC roots in her own journey of receiving hope and support through career building education. She hopes her journey can inspire the women of CWJC Waco. Carol now enjoys semi-retirement life, caring for her mother, and sharing life with her daughter, her 3 grandchildren, and 3 great-grand-daughters.
