Our Pastor
Beth Newman, wife of Brownie Newman and 18-month-old daughter Tess, comes to us from First Presbyterian Church in Asheville where she has been serving 10 years.
She has a solid background in both church development and pastoral care, has implemented visitor and prospective member outreach efforts, and also completed leadership training in personal caregiving.
We are looking forward to God’s work through Beth as we seek to see our congregation touch the lives of many people in our growing Swannanoa valley through outreach, service, fellowship, and teaching.
