PASTORAL Team
Debbie Moylan // Lead Pastor
Debbie has a passion for seeing people experience the life-transforming power that comes from a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Prior to serving the Body of Christ, she worked in the Theater world, managing, marketing and promoting live theater. That experience has helped develop her passion for using drama, dance, music and other creative arts to reach people with God's love story for God's creation. She previously led worship for over 17 years, in addition to writing songs that edify the church and glorify God. Debbie and her husband Tom moved to Ashby in 2000 with their two kids, Leighton and Cameron, where they have been joined by their youngest, Libby. They love their greater community and its people. It is her heart’s desire to see this community positively influenced, families strengthened, and our young people full of purpose and passion.
