My main responsibilities at SouthPark Church include casting vision for the direction of the church, teaching at the weekend worship services, and leading the staff. I am a graduate of High Point University and Harvard University. I am married to Lora and we have two sons.

My main responsibilities are congregational care, adult faith development and helping lead our worship services. I am a graduate of Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary with a Masters of Divinity. I am ordained through the Friends of St. Mary's based in London and was raised in Charlotte. I am married to Ryan and have three children who keep my house noisy, my fridge empty, and my heart full.

I get to help work with several ministries including communications, production, hospitality and modern worship. My wife Claire and I moved to CLT in 2015 when I joined the staff, and we have a little girl. We love our church and we love our city!

I manage the SouthPark Church office, and I also oversee the administration of the church’s finances. I was blessed to have been raised in the church by Christian parents and grandparents. I realized recently what a gift that was when I was chairing the Children’s Ministry team at my own church. It has become a passion of mine to do all I can within my personal life (sharing with my children and grandchildren) and through my church to be sure this word becomes written on the hearts of our youth!

Terry brings a wealth of experience and joins our staff after spending the better part of her career as an analyst in the life insurance industry. Terry grew up in Newport RI. It was there she earned her BS degree in Business Management at the University of Rhode Island. Terry says she still has fond memories of growing up on a small island and riding her bike to the beach, but she has called Charlotte home now for twenty-five years. She loves to garden and dabble in essential oils.

In my role at SouthPark Church, I serve our older congregation. I visit and/or call older adults who are or have been hospitalized and/or are homebound. I serve as staff liaison for Congregational Care and the Adults Plus ministry. I received my BSN from Case Western Reserve University, my MSN from the University of Kentucky, and my PhD from the University of Alabama at Birmingham where my research was in gerontology.

I lead and direct the music & worship in the Traditional Service. I graduated from Arizona State University with my doctorate and master's in music and organ performance, and was a Fulbright Scholar in music and organ performance at the Bordeaux Conservatoire in Bordeaux, France. I love the vision of SouthPark Church and my two daughters and I love being a part of this family!

My role at SouthPark Church is to help create a worship environment so that everyone can connect with God, and to help welcome others who may be worshiping for the first time. I am married to my wife, Savannah.

My primary responsibility is to take care of our youngest members and guests (0 - 5th grade). We create an atmosphere that will bring these little ones closer to Jesus and give them a strong foundation for the future. I am a graduate of Florida State University and worked for Marriott for 18 years as an Event Manager. I am also a life-long United Methodist and have served God in the Church since I was 10 years old. I’m married to Shawn and we have 2.5 boys (one due in May).

We lead the Student Ministry and help provide spaces for students to meet, know and follow Jesus! We both an extensive experience with Young Life, and we hope to continue building community and support for students at SouthPark. Chris is a teacher at Ardrey Kell High School and Nikki is an experienced MOntessori educator. They love traveling, hiking, history, reading and taking their two rescued Cocker Spaniels to the dog park.

I oversee Sunday morning production and have served as audio engineer since 2016. I work with a great team of volunteers every Sunday morning to help to create an atmosphere for worship. I also handle our church’s audio podcast which has a world outreach.
