 worship design and production
Rebecca grew up loving church, and initiated a personal relationship with Jesus at the age of 8. She became passionate about worship while in the youth group at Prospect UMC, and rekindled that passion several years later after joining the worship band at Snellville UMC. It was during that time that she realized the Lord had gifted her intentionally to work for Him by creating environments conducive to experiencing God through relevant worship. Rebecca's primary responsibility at The Vine is to coordinate everything that happens in Sunday morning services, including series planning, stage design, technology, lighting, worship center set-up/tear-down, and production volunteers. When she's not at The Vine, Rebecca teaches English at a high school in metro Atlanta, and enjoys spending time with her family. Rebecca and her husband, Nick, have two vivacious daughters, Katelynn and Tanner, and one son, Jaxson, who arrived in June 2009.
Birthplace: Raleigh, North Carolina Favorite Day/Experience: Easter! It's less commercial thanChristmas; I find myself less busy and more able to focus on the truereason to celebrate. Plus, there are Cadbury Eggs and pastel M&M's. When I'm not at church or with my family... I like to read with the windows open on breezy, 70-degree days, preferably with a caramel macchiato in hand and The Food Network on in the background. I also enjoy recreational grocery shopping, cooking, baking, taking meals to people, photography, and painting pottery. Favorite Quote: "The gift of presence is a rare and beautifulgift. To come - unguarded, undistracted - to be fully present, fullyengaged with whoever we are with that that moment.When we offer ourunguarded presence, we live like Jesus. And we invite others to do thesame." ~ Stasi Eldredge, Captivating Famous person I'd most like to meet: Is Derek Webb famous? I'd love to chill with him and Sandra.

Life Verse: I have two... - "Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, "The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for him." The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord." Lamentations 3:22-26
- "Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it - he will be blessed in what he does." James 1:22-25
