Pastor Debbie joined the Covenant Church of Easton in the summer of 2015 and she and her husband Rob quickly fell in love with the people and the purpose of our church; Loving God, Growing Together, Serving Others.  Debbie is actively involved in the life of our church through Bible studies, service and mission projects and of course, youth ministry.

Debbie’s passion for helping young people discover the joy of studying God’s Word has led her to host a Sunday morning Bible study during the school year and a summer Bible study in her home (complete with home-baked chocolate chip cookies) that gathers between 25 and 35 high school and college-age youth each week.

In her free time, Pastor Debbie likes to cheer on students at their sports games or high school plays and you’ll frequently find her at Panera Bread or Duchess catching up with them over lunch.  Whether it’s serving the homeless, riding a roller coaster or gathering for a group prayer, Pastor Debbie LOVES helping youth connect their every-day-lives to the things of God and their true purpose.

Debbie and Rob feel very blessed and spiritually fed by attending worship at Covenant Church each Sunday, as do their three young adult children (Kyle, Craig and Ally) when they’re in town.  Following in mom’s footsteps, each one of their kids have found themselves in Christian leadership roles through the Appalachia Service Project, InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and children’s and youth ministries in the local church.

Bob leads his own Business IT Consulting firm and the call to serve in our newly created part-time role as Director of Discipleship.  Our mission is to further develop and oversee our thriving small group ministries and our emerging connections ministries, to create new opportunities for learning and fellowship, which will encourage adults to grow TOGETHER toward Christ-likeness.

Bob loves to come alongside others and encourage folks to share and grow together on this crazy journey we call life! We were never meant to be alone; we are created by God to work together for His Glory.
