We are grateful to welcome Howard “Howie” Ashley, who will begin serving with us in August as our Children and Youth Spiritual Formation and Engagement Coordinator.

Howie brings a heart for ministry, a background in Special Education, and experience in both church and camp settings. He has a passion for helping children and youth be known, nurtured, and grow in their faith.

This fall, he will begin studies at Candler School of Theology at Emory University as he continues to follow God’s call in his life.

Howie will be with us May 9–15, joining us in worship and spending time in the life of our church.

We look forward to welcoming him and walking alongside him as a church family.

In loving memory of Barbara Gail Haley, who departed this world on April 17, 2026 at the age of 76. Barbara leaves behind a legacy remembered by family and friends. In the quiet moments of reflection, amidst the gentle rustle of leaves and the whispered song of the stars, we shall carry Barbara's memory with us, a guiding light illuminating the path ahead.

A memorial service will be held in the Sancturary on Saturday, May 2nd at 2:00 PM.

In lieu of flowers, those wishing to honor Babs' memory may make donations to Arborwood PCH, c/o Anna Nguyen.
