Rachel has been a part of First New Testament Church since she was a small child. She surrendered her heart to Christ at 8 yrs. of age during Vacation Bible School. Growing up, her Sunday School teachers and classes instilled within her a love for reading and studying the scriptures. She also experienced the close relationships that can be developed in these classes. She now serves as Sunday School Director leading and working along-side other teachers, dedicated to building relationships in the Body of Christ and bringing a meaningful Bible study to all ages each Sunday. Rachel has also been an active member, supporting, serving and helping the Body of FNT in other areas, including mission trips where, among other things, she served as a Spanish interpreter. She loves the Lord and wants to glorify Him in all she does, whether that be singing in worship services, praying for others in the altar, traveling, tithing, encouraging or teaching the Body of Christ. She was recently married to Patrick Carter and they are blessed to serve the Lord together at FNT.
