Everyone, please welcome Paige Holaday to the Mission Rivers District! Paige and her husband Jeremy (a zoo keeper at the Virginia Zoo) and their three dogs (Jadzia, Ivy, and Mara) have moved to Virginia for her new position at the Wesley Foundation at William and Mary. Paige last served at Auburn Wesley Foundation at Auburn University.

We asked Paige what she is most excited about for the coming year at her new appointment and she shared , "I'm most excited to learn the quirks and intricacies of a new campus and a new campus culture, and to learn how I (and the whole Wesley Foundation) can best support students at William & Mary and help them to be attentive to the ways God is at work in their lives."

Paige is an avid Dungeons & Dragons player. If you've ever wanted to learn to play, she is happy to teach you!

Welcome Paige! War Eagle! (But don't ever tell anyone that Lynn said that.....)
