The Rev. Steve Autrey officially began his appointment as Senior Pastor of Providence UMC on July 1, and we are delighted to welcome him to our church family. Steve's first day in the office is Monday, July 6, and we look forward to gathering for worship with him on Sunday, July 12. Steve is gifted and widely respected throughout the Conference, and we are grateful for the opportunity to begin this new chapter together.

We are also excited to welcome Steve's wife, Marcy, and their daughters, Elizabeth and Maggie, into the life of Providence.

As the Autrey family settles in, please continue to keep them in your prayers. We also invite you to pray for our church as we begin this new season of ministry together.
