As Senior Minister my primary purpose is to be an encourager, both of the discouraged and those who are in a position to encourage others.

I encourage the church to spend itself extravagantly in love for those inside and outside of our faith family. I encourage imperfect people (with myself at the top of the list) to grow in faith and action by following a perfect God. I preach, teach and dream with the intention of maximizing the number of hearts that are touched and the number of hands that are used to help.

Dee keeps the business of the church running smoothly by providing receptionist, secretarial and administrative services. As Administrative Assistant, she also oversees the activities of the out-sourced building services.  

As Church Cabinet Liaison , Ellen works with all the church committees and boards, assuring that everyone is fully informed and working in concert toward fulfilling the established goals of the congregation. 

Dr. Wink’s responsibilities include planning the music and fine arts program. This includes directing the Chancel Choir  and working with the organist, the Bell Choir, and Cherub Choir.  In recent years, Dr. Wink has also supervised a concert series of music and fine arts events, which includes at least two large works by the chancel choir, usually with instrumental accompaniment. During the summer months during chancel choir furlough, he plans and supervises solo and ensemble works. 

Tara accompanies the choir and serves as our organist. She is orginally from Georgia where she worked as a Ballet Accompanist and Church Musician.  In addition to playing for University and Dance Academies, Tara worked in Episcopal, Community Methodist and Presbyterian Churches. In her own words, Tara describes being a church musician this way, "The delightful work of being a musician is a blessing in itself, one that I appreciate greatly.  Music can be comforting, expressive, or jubilant.  It is the universal language, and I believe it's one of God's languages." 

Sarah’s role as the Director of Children's Ministry is to organize, teach and oversee the preschool – 5th graders. She enjoys encouraging the children to make friends while studying the teachings of Jesus and the word of God. Sarah is grateful for the wonderful families who volunteer every week and bring their children to church and Sunday School. She welcomes all to join us as we grow our faith by leaps and bounds, proclaim the word of God, and serve God’s people every week.
