We are so grateful to welcome Pastor Paul back to Fair Haven!

After his bike accident, our Day School students made special “Get Well Soon” cards to remind him just how loved he is by this church family. All your messages, prayers, and love has brought so much joy and encouragement.

Please continue to keep Pastor Paul in your prayers as he continues recovering. We are thankful to have him back with us! 🙏

Congratulations, Amber!!

We are thrilled to announce that Bishop Harvey has appointed Amber Jamison (they/them) to serve as a pastor at Galveston Central Church. Amber will be commissioned as a Provisional Deacon at Annual Conference in May. They will begin their residency with us starting on July 1st. Amber will primarily be working with our social service partnerships, strengthening our connections with the broader community. They will also be working with ProjectCurate to develop a discipleship model rooted in community organizing work.

When asked about coming to Galveston, Amber said, "I'm so excited to take part in the good things God is doing at Central! I'm looking forward to meeting everyone and getting to know your best 'life on the island' tips."

Welcome, Amber!
