Grace Weedman became the interim parish visitor on March 7, 2005. In addition to her work on staff, she is a deacon and sings in the Chancel Choir. She will tell you that she has the best job in the church because she gets to meet and visit with so many of its wonderful members.
Grace moved to Hampton Roads in 2002 from Monroe, Louisiana, where she taught gifted English for twenty years and had been the coordinator of the gifted program in her high school. She attended Baylor University, L. S. U., and finally received her Bachelor's degree from Delta State University. She received her Master's degree from Northeast Louisiana University.
Her husband, Charles, was the Minister of Music at First Presbyterian Church from August 2002, through October 2004, and is now directing the Jewish Community Chorus of Virginia Beach as well as serving as Music Director of Wycliffe Presbyterian on Great Neck Road in Virginia Beach. Grace sings in both of those groups, also.
Charles and Grace have four children: Leslie, in New York; Vicki, in Phoenix; Bill, in West Des Moines; and Jimi, in Austin. All are married except Leslie. Grace and Charles have seven grandchildren, and two great grandchildren. Grace loves to read, to write, to garden, and to be with her children and grandchildren. |
