STAFF

Meghan joined the CFBC staff in October 2022. She moved to the area from New Mexico with her family shortly before finding First Baptist. This church quickly became their new church home, full of people who feel like family. Meghan has been helping in the church children’s department since she was in middle school and has done everything from cleaning toys to being the Children’s Ministry Director at her previous church. She became a Christian at a young age and, because of that, has a desire to help kids grow their faith so that they learn to rely on God throughout their lives. Meghan and her husband homeschool their three kids and they enjoy spending their free time exploring the area and working in their yard. Her favorite verses are Psalm 91 and Proverbs 3:5-6.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.”

Thida and her husband, John, have been married since 1995 and have 2 children. An Army brat who grew up all over the place, Thida asked Jesus into her heart at a young age but did not truly walk with Him until her early 30’s. She loves to spend quality time with family and friends, including CFBC extended family. Thida’s favorite Bible book/verse is Philippians 4:8.

“Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.”

Laurie has been serving as the secretary of First Baptist since 2018. CFBC has a special place in her heart since her husband, Kim, proposed to her at the end of a morning service over 35 years ago. Laurie loves the Lord and her church family and is delighted to get to serve as a part of the staff. Her greatest joy is to encourage others in their faith and to see younger believers grow and walk with their Savior. Laurie also loves to sing and worship the Lord as a part of the worship ministry at CFBC. Two of her favorite verses are:

“‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future,’” Jeremiah 29:11

“Faithful is He who calls you and He will do it.” 1 Thessalonians 5:24

Kathy came to CFBC from Northern California in 2021 and joined the office staff in 2023. She and her husband, Bob, have been involved in music ministry for over forty years. Kathy now serves as the choir director and leads worship with Bob on a regular basis. They are grateful for the wonderful church family they have found here at CFBC. One of Kathy’s favorite life verses is Romans 8:28.

“And we know all things work together for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose.”

Aidan has been attending CFBC since 2010 and has had the honor of serving in a variety of ministries in and around the church, including Awana, Warm Lake Camp, and the Soundbooth. Aidan joined the staff as Communications Director in 2025 with the goal of streamlining church communications and media distribution to maximize gospel impact in the congregation and beyond. In his spare time, Aidan enjoys photography, filmmaking, birdwatching, and playing music. Some of his favorite verses are Proverbs 3:11-12:

“My son, do not despise the LORD’s discipline, and do not resent his rebuke, because the LORD disciplines those he loves, as a father the son he delights in.”
