GRAHAM, STACI
Associate Director for Global Ministry
404/ 842-2198
sgraham@peachtreepres.org
Born and raised in Clearwater, Florida, Staci graduated from Emory University with a BA in History. She spent one year with the international performance and service organization, Up With People, where she was first exposed to seeing how cross cultural understanding can begin when one individual makes a commitment to build a bridge to "the other" and, through even small gestures, can trigger positive social change. She relocated permanently to Atlanta in 1993 and spent 10 years in retail management.

In 2004 she was called into full time service at Peachtree Presbyterian Church. She joined the staff as Mission Associate where she coordinated an average of 15 short term mission trips annually and facilitated Peachtree’s relationships with 30 non-profit service providers in the city of Atlanta. In early 2009 Staci moved into the position of Director of Community Outreach and now serves as the Associate Director of Global Ministry.

Since her days with Up With People Staci has had a love of travel and learning about people in other cultures. This has translated into a love of God’s people and a great desire to know His heart and to be part of His work in the world, whether it is on the other side of the earth or in her own backyard of Atlanta. Her work with Peachtree Presbyterian gives her the opportunity to serve while carrying forward the vision for Christ-centered community transformation that is the foundation of these ministries.

She has sung with the Chicago Symphony Chorus, the US Army Ground Forces Band, and with the Atlanta Sacred Chorale.

Will Mack, while a native New Yorker, has the redeeming value of being a life long Presbyterian.

Will joined Peachtree as a member 23 years ago, and has served twice as an elder, as well as having served on and chaired a bevy of church committees. In November 2004 he joined the staff of Peachtree as the Executive Director of Operations where his responsibilities include the care and running of the facility, grounds, equipment, in addition to hospitality, real estate, insurance, Peachtree Express, technology, security and construction.

His wife Wanda is a legend in the Atlanta Commercial Real Estate community as well as being an accomplished and much sought after Pastel artist and has the voice of an angel. Daughters Melissa and Lori are grown and making their mark on the world. He is proud that having them grow up in the Peachtree Youth groups and choirs has had such a positive influence on their lives. Will is a private pilot and avid Racquetball player.

RYAN, JOE
Director of Student Ministries, Families with Students
404-842-5835
jryan@peachtreepres.org
I have been formally working in the ministry for the last eight years. I have interned for a small Baptist church in Southern California, worked as a counselor for one summer at Hume Lake Christian Camps, and worked on staff at Menlo Park Presbyterian Church in the Student Ministries department. Here at Peachtree, my ministry has been focused on leading and developing staff, planning trips, speaking, and implementing vision within the ministry. What I enjoy doing most is sitting down with a couple of students at a coffee shop and discussing the issues pertaining to their lives. Building relationships and creating community are a central part of my ministry philosophy, because they are central to the faith development of students.
WILLIAMSON, JAN

jwilliamson@peachtreepres.org
Jan Williamson, Director of Preschool Ministry, grew up in Rock Hill, South Carolina, and graduated from Winthrop University and the University of Washington. She worked as a hospital teacher at the University of Virginia Children’s Medical Center for thirteen years before joining the staff of Peachtree in 2000. Jan’s passion is supporting leaders and parents as they nurture children in faith. Her greatest joy in ministry is hearing our little ones claim for themselves, “Jesus loves me.” Drawing on her background working with families of children with special needs and with the families of children who are hospitalized, Jan also coordinates our special needs ministry and serves as the staff support for our Families with Children Pastoral Care Team.

Jan enjoys reading, baking, following college sports, time at the beach, and being with family, including her niece and nephew who live nearby.
