Janet

Janet Barton has faithfully served as the treasurer for Sport X Change since 2017. A retired nurse, she was born and raised in Canada and became a permanent U.S. resident in 1995. Janet is a proud mother of four and a widow, having shared 28 years of marriage and ministry with her late husband, during which they worked together in accounting and operated retirement homes. That experience uniquely prepared her for her current role overseeing the financial stewardship of Sport X Change.

Janet’s heart for missions is evident in her active involvement. She has traveled on five Master’s mission trips with Sport X Change, serving in Colombia, Panama, Mexico, and the Dominican Republic. Beyond her work as treasurer, she also uses her talents to handcraft Gospel bracelets, which are shared on mission trips as tools for evangelism.

Her life and service are a reflection of Colossians 3:17: “And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.”
