Biography
I am so honored and excited to be a part of the FPC family. Prior to my move to Midland, Austin was my home for 35 years. We raised our children in central Austin and this is where my love for serving children first began. God placed so many wonderful opportunities in my path – teaching Sunday School, teaching and chairing Vacation Bible School, attending mission trips, serving on the CDO board, volunteering with the children of the Helping Hand Home for Children, and teaching in a Christian school. My desire to move to Midland began with me wanting to be close to my daughter and her family. Little did I know that God had this wonderful position waiting for me! I have been blessed with two children and three grandchildren – Hilary and Marc Majors and their three little ones are here in Midland and my son and his wife, Will and Elizabeth, live in Nashville. My goal at FPC is to serve Christ and your children well. I look forward to working with each of you!
