“A New Beginning”
Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you, not harm you; plans to give you a hope and future.
Hi, folks!
My name is David Lee, and I am excited to be the new pastor at Antioch First United Methodist Church.
To give you a little background, I grew up in Chattanooga, Tennessee and attended Baylor High School. Upon graduating, I moved to Athens, attended the University of Georgia, and graduated with a degree in Business Administration.
Most importantly, I met Holli. We’ve been married for twenty-three years and have three children: Herndon (19), Ella Randall (16), and Wyatt (11). We moved to Gainesville in 2005 and have been actively involved with the community of Gainesville First United Methodist ever since.
In the summer of 2018, I graduated from Asbury Theological Seminary in Wilmore, Kentucky with a Masters in Divinity.
I also work for Jackson Electric Membership Corporation. As the Gainesville District Manager, I have the privilege of serving the membership by getting involved in the community. In fact, it has been my honor for the past twelve years to work with organizations such as Rehabilitation Industries of North Georgia, the Greater Hall Chamber of Commerce, Junior Achievement of North Georgia, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and the Gainesville Kiwanis Club.
As it happens, Holli and I are not completely new to the Antioch community. In fact, since our two oldest children, Herndon and Ella Randall, have been involved with GAP for the past few years, Holli and I have been regular-attendees of GAP Sunday morning worship! Each year we leave with an overwhelming sense of the Spirit and an eagerness to get more involved.
As your new pastor, I am looking forward to seeing all the new, exciting things God has in store for us. And while I’m sure none of us know exactly where we’re headed, one thing is certain: it will be an adventure!
In Christ,
Pastor David
