Very soon, however, new persons will join our staff in these areas. Ms. Kristen Hanna will begin her work with Preston Hollow in mid-May as the Director of Music.

Kristen is a native of Richardson and graduated from J. J. Pearce High School. She earned her Bachelor of Music in Voice from Meadows School of the Arts at SMU and graduates from Perkins School of Theology with the Master of Sacred Music degree on Saturday, May 12. She will also lead the music program of the Child Development Center. She will begin her ministry at PHUMC on May 14.

Graduating from Perkins on May 12 with the Master of Divinity Degree is Adam Young who is coming to our church as the Assistant Pastor for Family and Adult Ministry following Jacob. He will begin his ministry here on June 1.

Adam is married to his lovely wife Mallory, and they have two boys, Kaden and Colby.

Following worship on Sunday, May 20, there will be a reception honoring our own Ms. Holly Owen who will have graduated from SMU with her Bachelor Degree in Music Education.

Also, this will be a “welcome aboard” reception for Kristen Hanna whose first Sunday with us will be May 20.

Plan to linger following worship and offer your good wishes to both of these outstanding members of the Preston Hollow family.
