Shannon and Scott work as a team both at home and at Wesley. They met while singing in the SHSU Choir, began dating in 1999 and were married in 2005. They have been leading the Wesley youth group since 2004 and love working with youth as they grow in their faith and begin their journey to become disciples ready to transform the world in the image of Christ.

Shannon is a 2004 SHSU Alum. Recently, Shannon went back to school to become a nurse, graduating from the Joe G Davis School of Vocational Nursing. In her day job she continues her personal ministry by fulfilling her lifelong dream of helping the sick. Her passion for ministry is building one on one relationships with current and former youth and walking with them through the daily triumphs and struggles of life.

Scott is a 2001 Graduate of SHSU and 2003 Graduate of the LBJ School of Public Affairs at UT. A lifelong United Methodist, he now works for the National organization of U.M. ARMY, a United Methodist youth home repair mission organization and serves on the Board of Directors of Junior High United Methodist Mission Project (JUMMP). He is also an active leader in the UMC at the District and Conference level and was recently elected to the 2012 Texas Annual Conference Delegation to General and Jurisdictional Conferences. His passion for ministry is working with youth to make a difference in the lives of others through missions.

But Shannon and Scott’s most important job is spending time with their family. They were joined in 2007 by their pride and joy, Emily and their lovable mutt Willie-Butch, a 70 pound lapdog.

Either Scott or Shannon would love to talk with you about how you or your youth can become involved with the youth program at Wesley!
