After graduating from Milaca High School, Tracy went to Los Angeles, California to join a drama ministry called Covenant Players.  There, she took courses in drama, Bible, and communications.  She also traveled throughout the United States and Canada performing in churches, schools, nursing homes and military bases.  She met her husband Luke Shoemaker, who is originally from Ohio, while in Covenant Players.  After touring for their first year of marriage, they settled in Milaca.  They have four children; Jeremiah, Mallory, Aria, and Eli.  Tracy truly loves the Word of God.  She loves to read it, study it, talk about it and teach from it!  She enjoys photography and being in Gods creation with her family.
