About Amanda

I am first and foremost a believer and Gospel carrier. Since 2008, I have been married to my favorite person in this world, BJ Sauceda. Together we have 3 children, who are each a gift that God has entrusted us with. I work as an administrative assistant at a local school district where I find great joy in being able to graciously serve those around me in the workplace. I am a homebody at heart and I absolutely love spending time with my family. When I am not home, I love to go out and have coffee, go on dinner outings, and spend time with people I love! I also truly enjoy meaningfulĀ conversations with peopleĀ around me.

The greatest blessing in my life has been knowing the God of Grace. I am deeply grateful to God for the eternal life that I have in Him through Jesus and for the body of Christ who has been vital in my journey. For over a decade, I have been part of the Rio Life family where I have served in various areas of the church including the Sacraments Ministry, Youth Ministry, Social Media Ministry, and as the Secretary of the Governing Board.

My hope for Rio Life is that we would constantly find ourselves in awe of God. I pray that we would continue to move forward in life being Spirit-led, Kingdom-minded, intentional, and compassionate people.
