Lyndsey grew up as a member of St. Paul’s where she was baptized and confirmed.  She spent summers attending vacation bible school and later was active with St. Paul’s adult theater group, St. Paul’s Players.  After graduating from Roanoke College, she returned to Lionville and worked as Director of Music Ministries at the United Methodist Church of the Resurrection (now part of Exton UMC).  Following that, she spent nine years in Chicago where she worked as an arranger and background vocalist for gospel musicians, a conductor for the Chicago Children’s Choir, general music teacher at The Frances Xavier Warde School, and music coordinator/cantor

Craig was born and raised in Montgomery County, PA, a proud graduate of Lower Merion High School.  (Yes, that is Kobe Bryant’s alma mater.  No, he and Kobe did not attend LMHS at the same time – that distinction goes to his brother Eric.)  Having had a grandfather who was a pastor and a mother who is a church organist, it is almost literally true to say that he grew up in the church!  His faith roots run deep, and he has a great appreciation for the history and heritage of the Lutheran church, but also loves to learn about and experience new ways that people are finding to express their faith, and see how God is continually bringing renewal to the body of Christ (and himself!).

Craig has spent most of his adult life serving in youth and family ministries in one capacity or another, either as a paid staff member or a volunteer leader.  After graduating from Juniata College, he did what many liberal arts majors did and went into retail to pay the bills.  He also became part of the volunteer leadership team for the youth group at the congregation where he belonged, a pattern that continued after I moved to Rochester, New York to take a new job.  Just a few short years later, he heard God’s call to return to this area to serve Calvary Lutheran Church in West Chester as Director of Youth Ministry.  He served there for seven years, followed by a twelve-year dive into the realm of higher education administration at Eastern University and the University of Valley Forge.  He's thrilled to be back doing what he loves to do most, where he finds joy.

When he's taking a break and recharging his batteries, you will often find him engaged in photography, music, woodworking, hiking, or bicycling.
