Wimberley Presbyterian Church

Anne joined WPC as our Pastor in April of 2002. Since then, she has fallen in love with Wimberley and our WPC community! And we have found Anne's enthusiasm and love for the Lord to be infectious!

Anne was born in eastern Kentucky and grew up as the daughter of a Presbyterian minister. She earned her Masters of Divinity degree from Perkins School of Theology at SMU in Dallas in 1992, where she was Valedictorian of her class. Before coming to WPC, Anne was the Associate Pastor of Pines Presbyterian Church, a 600-member church on the west side of Houston.

Anne enjoys preaching, teaching and all that goes with being pastor to our WPC community. She has had experience working with all age groups and all areas of ministry within the church. In addition, she is a sought after conference and retreat speaker and workship leader.

Anne is married to Jim, a fellow Presbyterian and a retired oil company executive. Jim is very active in the church and local community affairs. Anne & Jim have two married daughters, both native Houstonians. Daughter Kristin is a Youth Director at a large Methodist church in Winchester, Virginia. Kristin and her husband Brandon are proud parents of Garrett and Parker, ages 10 and 6. And daughter Catherine with husband Alastair are proud parents of granddaughter Zoe (4 years old) and grandson Peter (2 years old). Catherine and Alastair are on the staff of Pines Presbyterian in Houston, serving as "alongside" ministers to the "marginalized" community near Pines, and also helping involve Pines members in the life of this community.

When not involved in the activities of the church, Anne enjoys reading mysteries, movies, shopping in Wimberley, entertaining at home, babysitting her grandchildren and driving the cart for her golfer husband! ...Contact Anne

David joined us in October of 2004 from Bellaire Presbyterian Church in Houston where he served as the Director of Youth Ministries. He also served as Director of Youth Ministries at First Presbyterian Church in Tyler, TX. During both of those calls, he attended Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary in Austin, TX and received his Master of Divinity degree in the spring of 2004.

David was born and raised in Kansas City, MO and moved to Texas in 1990 from Arkansas where he had met his wife Nora. They have two children, Chase and Kirstin.

David has worked in churches for the past nine years working with youth and children and their families. He has been an active participant of presbytery youth retreats as well as leading youth on mission trips all over the country and out of the country. David feels that "mission trips are one of the greatest ways for youth to grow in their faith and serve others". He has also led several week- long VBS programs, as well as Advent events, Easter activities, and live nativity scenes.

When David is not at the church or with the youth he likes to hunt (or anything that allows him to be outside), to read, and to chase a golf ball around the course. ...Contact David
