Jamison Parker

Senior Pastor

 My wife, Jenn, grew up in Frederick and I grew up in Middletown, Maryland.  We were married in 2012 and have two children together.  Our sons Josiah (born 2016) and Ezra (born 2018) are full of energy, filled with love for others, and increasingly growing to appreciate all things Maryland!  They can already eat as much seafood as almost anyone I know!  Jenn graduated from the University of Maryland College Park and loves this season of being home with our boys.  Together our family enjoys hiking, going to playgrounds and libraries, and spending time with friends and family.
