Brecon Nichols - Children's Minister

Brecon graduated from Ouachita Baptist University with a degree in Elementary Education, and has been employed as a full time teacher since January of 2001. When she was searching for a church home her prayer was, "Lord put me where I can serve you and your people." She did not want to just be a person who attends church; She wanted to express Christ's love to the people by serving them. Brecon then joined Highland in March of 2003 she immediately began teaching Sunday School for the Elementary age, and coordinating Vacation Bible School. Over the past four years, God has moved Brecon into a leadership role, and with the help of God and amazing people she is now directing the ministry, and working full time as a youth worker. "The bible says that children are a blessing, and I am truly blessed each day that I work with the children and youth".
