Pastor Ben comes to us right out of Duke University Divinity School, where he went after completing a BS in Business Administration at FSU.  He grew up in Ft. Lauderdale and was active in Christ UMC there.  He loves woodworking and the outdoors.

In his bio he provided, he states:  I am committed to walking the neighborhood around the church and getting to know the folks who live there.  I hope to facilitate spiritual, physical, and emotional space which is for the community through the congregation where God may show up.

He lists his strengths as empathy and listening, a willingness to learn and serve, thoughfulness, and community building.

Terri, a native of Maine, joined WUMC in January 2017.  She is the wife of Mark Manche, who has done work around the church for several years.  Terri's calm and competent demeanor fits perfectly in the church office, which can sometimes be pretty hectic.

William has worked for the church for about 36 years, keeping the campus clean and ready for whatever comes along. He is an excellent role model to youths and young men in the community as they come to help him around our church. He is not only teaching them what it takes to clean the buildings, but what it takes to be an upstanding member of the community!
