Damaris Acosta
I’ve been a member of the Hispanic ministry of FBJ since October of 2005. I joined the church staff back in 2010 after I had my third child. I was looking for something closer to home and God opened a door to serve in my church! What a blessing it has been!
I enjoy teaching, ministering to others alongside my husband, and spending time with my family and friends. I often cook and invite people over to pray and have quality time with them. We’ve had the best conversations at our dinner table, and we’ve seen God change people’s lives for eternity.
God is constantly at work!
Lora Roby
Lora is an original Jonesboro resident, a graduate of Jonesboro High School and then Georgia State University. Lora began working in the finance department, then took a year off to help her husband, Mike transition from their insurance business into full time sports ministry with Fellowship of Christian Athletes. Lora returned in 2013 to help with the growing media department and has seen great advancements in media and communications here. In 2016 she returned to the finance department and continues to love serving on staff.
Outside of church you will see Lora cheering on her son, Lucas in whatever sport is in season and serving along her husband, Mike with FCA.
Ecclesiastes 3:1 There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens. This reminds us that we are to live in God’s will for our lives and find the joy in all circumstances.
Marcia Pundsack
Marcia grew up in First Baptist Church Jonesboro, attending with her parents, two sisters, and grandmothers. She is a graduate of Jonesboro High School, and earned a degree in Business Administration from Shorter University. After working in the business world for 25 years, the last position being a Regional Finance Director for a water/wastewater engineering firm, Marcia joined the staff at First Baptist in 2000. She is teased quite often about her love of spreadsheets. She and her husband have been married over 40 years. When not working, Marcia enjoys spending time with her family, especially with her nieces and nephews.
Her parents’ witness in her life continues through her mom’s life verse, “This is the day the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalm 118:24
Tammy Canterbury
Our hospitality team loves serving Jesus by serving His people. My favorite verse is Colossians 3:23, “Whatever you do; do it heartily as unto the Lord.”
I am a wife, mama and Mimi to 3 awesome grandsons. When I’m not cooking, I’m elbow deep in DIY projects.
Wes Agnew
My direct responsibilities include oversight of the annual budget, coordinating the facilities of the church (scheduling of events, housekeeping, maintenance, upkeep of grounds), technology, food service, and day-to-day business operations of the church.
