    Barbara Spence attended Warner Pacific Bible College in Portland, Oregon, where she met and
    married Bill Virgin.  Together they pastored several churches in North Dakota, Minnesota and Idaho.  

    Barbara attained a BA in Social Services at the Idaho State University, caring for her young family as
    a single parent after the death of her husband.  Barbara later married Chuck Spence and together
