Get to Know Grace Staff: Christy Peterson, Students’ Project Coordinator

We have staff members in both campus staff and support staff roles all over the Upstate! We want you to get to know some of them as you stay updated with what’s happening at Grace Church.

What is your job title?

I am part of our campus support team for students as the projects coordinator. I work on specialized students projects for all of our campuses.

What brought you to Grace Church?

We moved to Greenville in 2014 and had wonderful new neighbors (Hi Chavez fam!) invite us to church. We have been attending ever since!

What do you enjoy most about your job?

I love having the opportunity to work with so many of our students staff across all campuses. I really love having a front row seat to watching our student staff's strengths and gifts come together on projects/teachings/retreats etc. It’s an amazing picture of how all of our campuses come together as one church to further our mission of life change for our students while connecting them to the local church.

What campus do you attend, and what is your favorite thing about it?

My family and I attend the Harrison Bridge campus. I am so grateful for the people and different relationships my family and I have built there over the years. Oh, and obviously the QT right outside the doors is nice, too!

What are you most excited about right now?

I am really excited about our student gender curriculum we have been creating over the past year, Distinct. We have studies coming out this summer for our Fusion boys and girls. Along with that, some of our female staff have been working on developing curriculum for our middle and high school girls that will be coming together this summer as well. We ask for continued prayer in this area for our students as we continue to discern what is most important for our female students to hear at each age group around God’s design for females. We will begin working on our middle and high school guys curriculum in April!

What is one interesting thing about you?

My husband, Doug, and I have four boys! If you would have told me 10 years ago that I would have been a Mom to four loud, loving, crazy, fun, busy boys, I would have laughed at you. It all works well for my overly competitive nature.
