About

Hi there! My name is Jovana Florio, but my friends call me “Jenny.”

I was born on Long Island, New York, and the Big Apple still holds a very special place in my heart. :) I now live in the rolling hill country of Pennsylvania with my parents and sisters, Becky and Elizabeth. I go to Westminster Presbyterian Church and am grateful for the Christ-centered worship and fellowship there.

I work as a coach for CollegePlus! but I love my job so much that most of the time it doesn’t really feel like work. I am also a student at Westminster Theological Seminary, studying Biblical Counseling — and learning more than I ever thought possible.

I love… Talking with people and hearing their life stories. Being outside in God’s creation. China tea cups. Learning about missions around the world. Studying history. Playing the piano. BOOKS. Writing. Handel’s Messiah. Baking apple pies. Studying God’s Word with other people. Discipleship with young ladies. And lots more. :)

And I would love to hear from you! You may contact me at jovanaflorio@gmail.com.

Before the throne of God above
I have a strong and perfect plea.
A great high Priest whose Name is Love
Who ever lives and pleads for me.
My name is graven on His hands,
My name is written on His heart.
I know that while in Heaven He stands
No tongue can bid me thence depart.

When Satan tempts me to despair
And tells me of the guilt within,
Upward I look and see Him there
Who made an end of all my sin.
Because the sinless Savior died
My sinful soul is counted free.
For God the just is satisfied
To look on Him and pardon me.

Behold Him there the risen Lamb,
My perfect spotless righteousness,
The great unchangeable I AM,
The King of glory and of grace,
One in Himself I cannot die.
My soul is purchased by His blood,
My life is hid with Christ on high,
With Christ my Savior and my God!

–Charitie L. Bancroft, 1863
