The Rev. Susan Haynes, Interim Pastor

Before attending seminary, Susan held various positions in the business world, including owning and running a small business. 


Prior to becoming a Teaching Elder, she served as a Deacon (ordained at Stockbridge Presbyterian in Stockbridge, GA) and as a Ruling Elder (ordained at Ray-Thomas Memorial Presbyterian in Marietta, GA). While serving as a Ruling Elder in Cherokee Presbytery, Susan was a Commissioned Lay Pastor, served on the Committee on Ministry (one year as Chair), was Moderator of Presbytery 1987-88, and was a Ruling Elder Commissioner to the 1994 General Assembly. Susan's involvement in the Presbytery of Greater Atlanta as a member minister for the past 16 years has included chairing the Committee on Ministry and serving as Clerk of the Permanent Judicial Commission. In the years leading to her coming to Faith, Susan served as a Senior Pastor and head of staff for churches in transition.

 

Susan joined the ministerial staff in June 2020 as Associate Pastor.  In October of 2021, Susan was asked to serve as the Interim Pastor.

Dr. Phillip Mitchell, Director of Music

Phillip has led choirs in Baptist and Disciples of Christ churches. He taught himself to play piano as a child and learned to read music as a trumpet player in school. He’s written hundreds of songs, four church musicals, and has placed three songs in the finals and several more in the semifinals of the UK Songwriting Contest. He recently signed publishing contracts with Perpetual Music Group and Price Royalty Publishing. He’s also been named “One to Watch” over a dozen times by the Nashville Songwriters Association and has had several songs nominated for inclusion in the quarterly publishers luncheon. 


When he’s not working on music, Philip is teaching English at the University of North Georgia where he was recently promoted to associate professor and granted tenure.
