Director of Children's Ministry-Olivia McMurray
Olivia first started attending Grace Church in 1992 and grew up in the church. She married her husband Andy in May of 2013 and together they have 2 children. She previously worked as a sign language interpreter before becoming a full time stay at home mother after the birth of her first child.

Her heart longs to teach and instruct children to grow in the ways of the Lord. Olivia also serves as the Director of Cubbies in our Awana program.
