Linda Morphis - Program Coordinator for College/10:24 Groups
Volunteering as a parent led to a love of working with kids in youth ministry. Linda came to First Presbyterian Church in 2005 after volunteering and working for six years at her former Nashville church. She thinks mission trips, playing Four Square, sleeping on the floor, eating pizza and peanut butter sandwiches, and crowded van rides are great fun! But more than that, it's watching kids grow in their faith as they find direction and love through their relationship with Christ. Fun, too, (and most days pretty funny!) is working with an outstanding, and incredibly gifted Youth staff.
Linda grew up, the second of four children, on Signal Mountain (near Chattanooga) and majored in Education at the University of Tennessee. She is married to Rock and together they have three children: Kathleen a college junior, Ellen a college freshman and John, an 8th grader and member of the FPC Youth Group. Peanut (the miniature dachshund), Shelly (the pound dog), Yertle and Timothy (the turtles) and assorted goldfish round out the Morphis household.
For fun, Linda enjoys going on trips with her family, spending time with friends, summer time in the North Carolina mountains and being a partner in a small antiques business.
One of her favorite Bible verses comes from Ephesians 3:14-17 - "... I bow my knees before the Father from whom every family in heaven and on earth takes its name. I pray that, according to the riches of his glory, He may grant that you may be strengthened in your inner being with power through His Spirit, and that Christ may dwell in your heart through love and faith as you are being rooted and grounded in love."
