We are excited to announce our new Director of Children’s Ministry—Randi Outlaw. Randi is originally from Duluth, Georgia. In 2011, she graduated from Kennesaw State University with an undergraduate degree in Communication. She then went on to serve in various kid’s ministry roles at Mount Pisgah United Methodist Church in Johns Creek, North Point Community Church in Alpharetta, and The Foundry Church in Baltimore, Maryland before taking a few years off to be home with her young family. She is excited God has called her back into ministry and can’t wait to help partner the hearts of families with the light of the church to know the love our incredible Savior!
Randi is married to Mark, who is a Warrant Officer at Fort Gordon, and they have a 6-year-old son, Jude, a 4-year-old daughter, Abigail and a bichon-poodle, Abu.
Randi loves to adventure with her family from Disney and Universal trips to local fun like kayaking the canal or running the Greenway. She adores being anywhere near water, and the panhandle of Florida is a personal favorite. She loves watching her children participate in various sports and cheering on the National Champion Georgia Bulldogs and Atlanta Braves. Any place she can add creative touches is exciting for her, and she is thrilled at the opportunity to share her passions with the FBC family.
After being interviewed and unanimously selected by the Preschool and Children’s Advisory Committee, we moved quickly through approval of the Personnel Committee so that Randi could start immediately. Consequently, she will be with us starting Sunday, July 31st, as she works with Melissa on a time of transition. We will formally introduce Randi and her family in worship on Sunday, August 14th.
Be sure to take a moment to welcome Randi as you have opportunity. And look for ways you can support her and the ministry as we continue into a great future for our ministry with children!
In the Hope of the Gospel,
Jim Walls
