Let’s Welcome Our New Senior Pastor
Today is that exciting day in the life of our church when we welcome our new Senior Pastor, Dr. Rick Mitchell, to Wynnton United Methodist Church. Rick has served in ministry for 39 years, beginning when he was an 18-year-old student at Valdosta State University. After graduating from Valdosta State, he went on to receive his Master’s degree in Divinity from Asbury Theological Seminary and his Doctorate in Ministry from Drew University.
Rick comes to us from his appointment at the Eastman First/Friendship charge where he served for the last six years. Prior to this, Rich served such churches in the South Georgia Conference as: Dublin First and Liberty in central Georgia, and Epworth and Midland here in Columbus.
As we welcome Rick to Wynnton, we are also blessed that he is joined by his wife Deb. Rick and Deb have been married for 23 years and they have three adult daughters: Ashtyn Hutchins, who is married to Stephan, Gillis Davis, who is married to Nathan, and Tyndal who is a student at Georgia Tech. Ashtyn and Stephan have two children, Bailey and Kennedy. Gillis and Nathan have one child, Mackenzie.
Please welcome Rick and Deb with that special Wynnton love and warmth, and with great excitement and anticipation as we begin our journey in ministry together with them.
