Taylor arrived as the Director of Youth and Family Ministries in March of 2014. Feeling a call to ministry early in life, she received her BA from Texas Lutheran University with a major in Youth Ministry and a minor in Hebrew. Taylor and her husband Dustin have a beautiful boy Liam who you will see running around most Sundays, and a beloved Jurri, an Australian Kelpie. Taylor has taught gymnastics and loves ballet and Disney movies.

Heidi Scanio, Director of Music
Heidi is an accomplished musician in her own right as a vocalist and opera teacher. Heidi also has an incredibly warm and inviting personality which I am sure will serve this ministry well. Heidi comes with a wealth of knowledge and a deep commitment to building on the foundation of our strong music ministry.
