Lower Discipleship DirectorReturners

Gabby served as the Videographer last summer and is so excited to spend time with our lower villages this summer as their Discipleship Director! She is so excited to see all that the Lord is going to do this summer!

What is something you could give a 20 minute presentation about no hesitation?

I could give a 20 minute presentation about my cat Tim. He is absolutely precious and adorable and I could talk to an absolute stranger about him if they’d listen.

POV you're driving down the Blue Ridge Parkway. Windows down. What song are you listening to?

Drive by Ben Rector!! Every time I listen to it in the car I feel like I’m in a movie it’s such a perfect road trip song!!

When you were little, what did you want to be when you grew up?

I literally told my teacher I wanted to be Snow White. Honestly, I still wouldn’t mind being Snow White. I had a good head on my shoulders in pre-school.

When someone mentions Crestridge, what's the FIRST thought that pops into your head? (Think sweet or silly!)

THE BLOB!! It’s such an iconic part of Crestridge and every year I decide to try it again thinking I will succeed and I always fall off haha!!

As the Lord is preparing your heart for this summer, what's your biggest prayer?

My biggest prayer is that the Lord will speak through me to these precious girls. I hope even if they don’t remember the words I say, they remember the feeling of God surrounding them like hug in this beautiful place. I pray for them to leave with God in their hearts.
