John Drake
director of early childhood center
WHAT I DO:
As Director of the Early Childhood Center, I work with a marvelous team of classroom leaders and office staff who love and enjoy working with young families. You know, hanging with preschoolers guarantees you fresh discoveries every day. I love that. I truly believe that God wants the Church and Home to work in tandem, and so I work to help the ECC come alongside our families as they are just starting out and help them to keep God’s big picture in mind. Parents have an important task of raising kids and I want to remind them they don’t do it alone. I know that honors God.
HOME, FAMILY, PETS?
My wife, Cathy, and I make our home in Westfield and have three great kids we’ve been given to love on: J.C., Carissa, and Jenna. If you come for a visit you’re sure to be greeted by our dogs Annie and Wesley who act as if they rule the roost…until a good thunderstorm comes around.
MY HOBBIES:
Singing, photography, landscaping, remodeling (not always at the same time!)
INTERESTING THING TO KNOW ABOUT ME:
My wife and I were married in Kenya, East Africa where we served as short term missionaries. Don’t believe me? Ask me to whip out our Kenya Wedding License! We hope to return together soon.
