My name is Miriam Heider. I was born in Chicago, IL and moved to Aurora, NE when I was 7. I have 2 brothers and 2 sisters and we were all proudly raised by my single mother. I remember coming to the Lord in my first grade class in Chicago, but my faith didn’t mature until high school. I went on a missions trip with my youth group to Urban Impact Ministries in New Orleans. It was there that I first felt that God had a purpose for my life and was actively pursuing me. After graduating high school, I interned with Urban Impact for one year. I then returned to Nebraska to attend the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, where I met my amazing husband, Joe. We were married in May, 2006. We live in one of City Impact’s target neighborhoods. We have been a part of City Impact’s Bible Club for the past 3 years and hope to someday be full-time missionaries in a Spanish-speaking country.
My official title for the ILC is Reading Tutoring Coordinator. I will oversee the R.E.A.L. (Read, Educate And Listen) Room. I will assess the reading level of the youth and train volunteers in how to effectively use the tutoring materials.
