Terri Tybring
Short Bio: I was born and raised in Madison, Wisconsin. My parents were (and still are) very positive people and I have wonderful memories of my childhood with them. I taught elementary and middle school music in Random Lake for 29 years before sensing a "call" to leave that position to serve at Immanuel! 
A highlight of my life was when my best friend from high school called me out of the blue to see how I was doing after all these years. Six months later, we were married and have been married for sixteen years. Between the two of us, we have three children and two grandsons. Over the past several years, I have had a passion to serve God, Immanuel and the ministries in India in whatever way possible.
Education: Beginning in 1974, I attended the University of Wisconsin in Madison, hoping to do something with music. I first pursued music composition, then switched to voice performance and finally switched to music education. In 1978, I received a Bachelor of Science degree in music education, followed by a Masters degree in 1987.
