Grace and peace to you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ!

My faith journey has been very relational and so I am reminded of Jesus’ description of the two greatest commandments – to love God and neighbor. Those two relationships seem to have been strongly connected in my life. Over the years, there have been people and experiences that have shaped my understanding of God and understanding of God’s will for my life. I am a native of Atlanta, growing up in Sandy Springs. I even spent a summer as a counselor at our nearby Calvin Center. Since those days, my journey has led me to N.C. State University, four years as an engineer officer in the U.S. Army, seminary at Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, churches in the mountains of Virginia and the coast of North Carolina, and the Doctor of Ministry program at Princeton Seminary.

God has blessed me with a wonderful family which is a great joy to me. My wife Jennifer and I have three children - Addison, Broecks, and Caroline. My faith grows every day as I experience God anew through the wonder and inquisitiveness of my children.

I look forward to the journey ahead as the pastor of Fayette. I’m sure you will find here, as I have, a genuine and caring group of sisters and brothers in Christ with a heart for mission.

JACOB WINSLETT

I was born July 7, 1980 and grew up in Douglasville, GA, as a music minister's son. I went to Douglas County High School, graduated in 1998. I have been married since August 2, 2003, and have loved every moment with my wife, Laurie.

I have an eclectic Christian background, which includes denominations such as Baptist, Methodist, Church of God, and now--Presbyterian. I have always loved music and have been playing guitar for ten years. For the past six years, I have been a worship leader in both youth and adult church settings. During that time, I also attained my bachelor's degree in Human Relations at Atlanta Christian College, where Laurie and I met.

I chose HR as my degree because I've always been intrigued by psychology, and after a year at Clayton State College and University, I felt like God was leading me towards that field. Classes in high school, personal experience, and seeking God's will are what really spurred my interest.

Other areas that I am interested in include counseling, psychology, Xbox, Lord of the Rings and anything by J.R.R. Tolkein, drama, songwriting, story writing, soccer, soccer, soccer and anything else I might stumble upon that looks kinda cool.

I pray that God will use Laurie and me as vessels to hold and pour out His love to everyone we meet.

LAURIE WINSLETT

A Georgia girl through and through, I was born and raised in the Peach State. My grade school years consisted of private school through fifth grade and home school the rest of the journey. I went on to get a Bachelors of Science Degree in Human Relations from Atlanta Christian College.

I love music. All genres: R&B, Country, Christian; they all hold inspiration for the soul. I like to dabble in song-writing when a creative notion hits me. My current favorite TV show is Legend of the Seeker.

My most beloved Bible passage would have to be II Corinthians 4:7-9:

"But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, so that the surpassing greatness of the power will be of God and not from ourselves; we are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not despairing; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed"

I have been happily married since August of 2003 to a wonderful, godly man who is blessed with musical talent. We have a sweet baby boy born October 30, 2009 - Braeden Gene. We also enjoy the pitter-patter of little furry feet ~ from our kittens, Mocha, Orion, and Isabelle, and our puppy, Percy. Jacob and I moved to Fayetteville in March of '05 and are absolutely thrilled to be a part of this community.
