Hello Everyone!
I’m thrilled to join you as the new Director of the Activities & Youth Ministry Center (AYMC). My journey into this role comes from a background in health and wellness, where I worked as a personal trainer and lifestyle coach. I’m passionate about fitness and sports—whether it’s playing rugby, watching a game, or simply being active outdoors.
When I’m not at work, you’ll often find me on a hike with my Bernese, Hobbes. I’m excited to bring my love for Health & Wellness to the church and help create a dynamic and engaging space for our youth and community.
I look forward to meeting you all and working together to make a positive impact!
Warm regards,
Dante Gliatta
Introducing our new Ministry Assistant for Pastoral Care and Engaged Aging—Toyin Audifferen! Jenna Manning, Kyle Matthews and I interviewed numerous qualified candidates and unanimously felt that Toyin has the unique gifts and personality to meet the ministry needs for this new position. Toyin began work with us just in time for Kyle to prepare her for his sabbatical leave, and we hope you will have the chance to come by and share your words of encouragement and greetings with her in the near future.
—Michael McEntyre, Minister of Engaged Aging
Hello FBG!
I am so excited to join you as the new Ministry Assistant of Pastoral Care & Engaged Aging. I have a background in Tech Operations and Administration Assisting and found my way to FBG because of my heart for ministry and being the church for those around me.
Based in Five Forks, I like to read self-help books, go thrifting, listen to worship music, and hike the beautiful SC mountains with my mom, siblings and chihuahua Lieutenant. I’m overjoyed to bring my love of ministry and skills to First Baptist Greenville’s table and look forward to connecting with you all as the days go by!
Warmly,
Toyin Audifferen
