Pastor Elizabeth is originally from the Deep South, but has called the PNW home for almost 20 years. She started her pastoral life as an Associate Pastor at First Church from 2008 to 2010, and later served churches in Tacoma and Issaquah. In 2025, she became one of three Superintendents in the Seatac District, and became the Interim Senior Pastor at First Church in January. She’s thrilled to get to serve alongside the people of First Church again! In her free time, she teaches preschool, drives her teenagers around, cheers for the Mariners, and drinks coffee.
