Lauren grew up in the UMC from a small town in Oklahoma where she developed a lifelong love for faith, family, and community. She was an active member involved in Sunday school, VBS, Kid’s Club, Youth group and involved in Christmas programs—when she aged out of a program, she would immediately become a helper for the next year.

Lauren attended the University of Oklahoma (Boomer!)  and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology. In 2016, she married her college sweetheart, Sean, and are now the proud parents of two sweet—and rowdy—boys, and two golden retrievers. In her spare time, you can find her out in the sunshine or curled up in a blanket with her Kindle. Lauren brings a warm and welcoming spirit, a servant’s heart, and an eagerness to support the ministries of our church family.
