Testimonial
"Since 2012, we've had a group of Christian vets, techs, and sometimes students, gather in our home for a PCVF group every few months. It has been a rich time of friendship, fellowship, encouragement, and prayer. We have really enjoyed getting to know, and do life alongside, these families who we share so much in common with."

South Central Region Representative 870-820-6396
rlindsey@cvm.org
Rocky (LSU ’98) and his wife, Alicia, live in southeast Arkansas. They have two teenage sons, Isaac and Jonah. Dr. Lindsey owned and operated two busy small animal practices until 2015. Even though the practices weren’t for sale, the Lord led the Lindsey’s to sell their businesses, then led Dr. Lindsey to teach at a local university. Recently, Dr. Lindsey has assumed the role of South Central Region Representative for CVM, replacing Glenn Gaines who is having to step back from the role due to family health reasons. The Lindsey’s are excited to join the CVM team and look forward to getting to know the vets and vet students in this region.
Dr. Nancy Moore
West Region Representative 727-415-4575
nmoore@cvm.org
Nancy is a Nebraska native. Scholastic blessings led her to the University of Florida for vet school, graduating in 1995. Small animal private practice and a love for the Lord propelled her into short-term missionary work with CVM’s Native American Reservations and Urban Outreach. In obedience to the Lord, she completed a Master Degree in Ministerial Leadership at Southeastern University in 2020. Nancy and Carnell have five precious children: Ebriana, Jordan, Logan, Damian and Reagan. While Nancy continues with CVM as a short-term missionary, she also serves with CVM as the US West Region Representative. She connects and ministers to veterinarians, professors, vet students, technicians, donors and prayer partners encouraging them to fix their eyes on Jesus the author and finisher of our faith. In addition, she helps leverage them in their positions to love the Lord and others through veterinary medicine across her region of nine states.
