Senior Administrative Assistant

Sherry Copeland


Sherry and her husband, Michael (ACBC Praise and Worship Leader/Deacon) joined Autumn Creek Baptist Church in March 2020 - the week before the pandemic shut everything down as we know it.  They moved to Houston from Plano, TX where they were members of Prestonwood Baptist Church for 19 years.  Sherry was involved in the Children's ministry from the beginning as a volunteer, then working  as a childcare worker during the week.  In 2002, she applied at Prestonwood CLC Plano as a preschool teacher to teach in their Mother's Day Out program.  She was a classroom director of 2-year-olds for 10 years before accepting the position of Assistant Program Director of the CLC Program in 2012.  She worked in that capacity until August 2018 when she resigned her position to prepare for their family's move to Houston.  She "got the itch" to work and teach children again after joining ACBC, so in September 2020, she began working in the MDO program here at ACBC.  She taught two and three-year-olds, loving every minute of it.  It wasn't until this past spring that the position in the church office became available, so after much prayer, she felt God leading her in this other direction to serve her church.

Sherry just recently moved into the Senior Administrative Assistant role at ACBC in May, and she says she is still learning the ins and outs of the position, but is enjoying her new position at ACBC.   She is passionate about her church, its members, and ACBC's mission.  Her church is her life, and she is devoted to doing the kingdom's work.

 

One of her favorite Bible verses is: "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is older, he will not depart from it."  - Proverbs 22:6

Another verse is: "You are the light of the world.  Let your light shine before men, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven." - Matthew 5:14,16
