Introducing Your New Office Administrator

C.J. Mahaney once said, “Sunday is the best day of the week because we celebrate the risen Christ of the cross in the local church, the dearest place on earth.” Now imagine getting to be there during the week too! Getting to be “behind the scenes” on all the ins and outs of church life and ministry. This is the privilege of the church office administrator.

By God’s grace, I personally have had the privilege of serving as the office admin for several years. It is a ministry that has given me the greatest joy and has humbled me in so many ways. It has stirred a deep love for my fellow believers and given me a unique appreciation for our pastors. Though practical on many levels, it is more than a job. It is ultimately a ministry of love and service to Christ’s beloved body. And, on May 1st, we have the privilege of handing this ministry to someone new – Cierra Wilkins!

If you don’t know Cierra, she moved to Tucson five and a half years ago and became a member of Sovereign Grace shortly after. She and her husband Alex and son Nolan love this city, its food, and its people! Cierra has worked for StateFarm for several years and has served this church in multiple capacities including the GRACEkids and SG Youth teams. She is known for serving with excellence, kindness, humility, and an infectious smile! 

Below is a note from her sharing with us her personal excitement for taking on this role:

“I feel very privileged and excited for this opportunity to use my gifts and skills to serve my local church in this capacity. What a joy it will be to have the ability to give more time and energy to serving the Lord and His people. I’ve loved growing alongside my fellow church members for the last five and a half years. You have all been an example of Christ’s love in the way you have cared for my family and others. Each week I eagerly look forward to the gospel-centered teachings and fellowship on both Sunday mornings and in community groups because I’m always encouraged to have Christ at the forefront of my mind. My local church has become the dearest place on earth and I’m filled with joy thinking of the years to come.”

We are so thankful for Cierra and the capability, joy, and love that she will bring to this job! We look forward to the years to come too!
