Alesia likes to say she was born into the Presbyterian Church. Originally from Mobile, Alabama, she spent most of her childhood in Florida and was active in the church throughout her youth. After graduating from the UGA School of Social Work, she worked in that field for a short time before becoming a full-time parent and part-time volunteer in children’s and youth ministry. Alesia taught at a church kindergarten for 11 years and subsequently joined the staff of First Presbyterian Marietta in 1999. As Director of Children’s Ministry, she is dedicated to supporting children and their families on their spiritual journeys. One of her greatest joys is seeing kids get excited about doing mission. When she’s not at FPC Marietta, Alesia enjoys spending time with her grandsons, tending her little part of God’s green earth, and kayaking with her husband.
