Ministry Began at Christ Greenfield: 2014

Mrs. Spicer joined the Christ Greenfield faculty in 2014 as a 1st-grade teacher where she absolutely fell in love with teaching young students. Prior to starting a family (3 boys, now ages 20, 17, and 14) she taught 5th grade, facilitated a small group in a Special Ed classroom, and taught a Toddler Time class. She leads the Preschool with a passion for early intervention and a desire to see all children grow socially, academically, and spiritually. Her favorite things about Christ Greenfield are the strong community and the emphasis on sharing Jesus’ love as we celebrate His work in every situation!
