Austin Coulter received a unanimous vote Sunday to become our Minister to

Middle School and Senior High students. Austin has already been serving in the youth ministry as a volunteer and has done a fine job leading and teaching in Sunday School, on Sunday and Wednesday nights, and during youth activities. Austin has a passion for

youth ministry and has also been very involved in mission trips and in serving the senior

adults of Sand Spring through the Job Jar ministry. Austin will be working in the coming months to complete his bachelor’s degree and will then begin his seminary education.

I want to say thank you to the members of the Youth Minister Search Committee. Brian Franklin served as chairman. Other members included Blake Drury, Bob Works, Bobby Montgomery, Jeri Chenoweth, Fran Williamson, Wendi Pierce, and

Susan Richey. We also had 2 youth representatives on the committee - Zachary

Carmichael and Abby Vaughn.
