Missy Setty Named Children's Ministry Director

On February 1, Missy Setty was named Children's Ministry Director for Brighton First. Missy oversees our programing for children, infants through 4^th grade. This includes Sunday School, special children’s events and Vacation Bible School. Missy brings life-long experience in the church and a love of God and children. Her education and experience will be an asset to her ministry. We our blessed that Missy has chosen to lead our children’s ministries at Brighton.

A word of introduction from Missy:  I have lived in Brighton for nearly 11 years and have been a member of this church family for all of that time.  My husband, Jim and I have two sons – Alex, an 8^th grader, and Matthew, a 5^th grader. My Bachelor’s Degree is in education from the University of Toledo and I have completed classes towards my Master’s Degree in Education at both Eastern Michigan University and Kent State University. I have been a teacher in both the Novi and Charyl Stockwell Academy districts and I am currently a swim coach for the Pinckney Aquatic Club, an adult mentor for the Ypsilanti Youth Orchestra, and a Pokemon Professor and league leader for the Pokemon trading card game at the Brighton District Library.  I love Doctor Who (Jim is letting me build a TARDIS in our basement!), reading, and teaching children. While English is my native language I also am proficient in French, pig Latin and nerd.   I am looking forward to working with our volunteers to share the love and teachings of Christ with our children.

Please keep Missy in prayer as she leads ministry in our congregation. I invite you to send a note of encouragement to missy@brightonfumc.org. If you are moved to serve, offering children the love of Jesus Christ, contact Missy.
