This guy is legit. A heart of gold and abilities to match. One of the best parts of my “job” is watching people find their perfect place of service. Some have multiple talents but choose to simply, humbly use them to benefit the Body of Christ. Shawn is one of those people.

“In this way we are like the various parts of a human body. Each part gets its meaning from the body as a whole, not the other way around. The body we’re talking about is Christ’s body of chosen people. Each of us finds our meaning and function as a part of his body. But as a chopped-off finger or cut-off toe we wouldn’t amount to much, would we? So since we find ourselves fashioned into all these excellently formed and marvelously functioning parts in Christ’s body, let’s just go ahead and be what we were made to be, without enviously or pridefully comparing ourselves with each other, or trying to be something we aren’t.

If you preach, just preach God’s Message, nothing else; if you help, just help, don’t take over; if you teach, stick to your teaching; if you give encouraging guidance, be careful that you don’t get bossy; if you’re put in charge, don’t manipulate; if you’re called to give aid to people in distress, keep your eyes open and be quick to respond; if you work with the disadvantaged, don’t let yourself get irritated with them or depressed by them. Keep a smile on your face.” (Romans 12:4-8 MSG)

As Music Director and Graphic Designer here at Community, Shawn serves alongside several other people who do the same thing. Together they simply, humbly use their abilities to benefit the Body of Christ and give their best to the Mission of Christ.

A big THANK YOU to ALL OF YOU who serve and help and work around here for the cause of Christ!
