About Us

I've been a Student Pastor since 1998. I attended Trinity College of Florida to receive my Bachelors in Theology and Youth Ministry. I am happily married to the love of my life, Jessica. Together, we have four children, Jacob, Rachel, Naomi Grace and Rebekah. My hobbies include website and graphic design, snow skiing, spending time with my family and hanging out with teenagers. I truly believe that our youth are not the church of tomorrow, they are the church of today!  It is my desire to help them to Know, Live and Share Christ.  

My name is Carol Childs and I currently teach 7th grade Sunday school with my husband Robert. I have been involved with teaching children a little over 9 years between Shiloh Baptist and my former church. I love spending time with our youth and watching them grow in their walk with God.

I have been in SOS Youth for 3 years. I co-teach 8th/9th grade Sunday School and run the Snack Shack. I have been married to the love of my life, Kenny, for 9 years and have a smart & beautiful 18 year-old daughter Amanda, who just graduated from PCHS with Honors. My other children are my two Golden Retrievers, Levi & Lulu, and new kitten, Leo. I am truly blessed to have such a wonderful family and a wonderful church family. The Youth is the best place to be at Shiloh! We really have a great time with everything we do.....come check us out!!

I accepted Christ when i was 12 years old , it was at church camp at Toccoa Falls, Ga. in 1987 . I have been a member of Shiloh since then and my parents came shortly after that. My Dad was Saved and Baptisted in 1988 WHAT a awesome experience that was. My favorite Bible verse is Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. I feel like God is teaching me patience and faith at this point in my life, he is also teaching me that things happen in HIS time not mine. My hobbies are spending time with my Family, they are the most important thing to me. When I was a kid i wanted to be a Mommy, i thought being a Mommy was the best job ever ( AND IT IS) My family is just a little crazy, my husband and I met over a flat tire that I had on my car. Together we had 5 kids, until 2008 when we were blessed with child number 6. I am excited to see what God has in store for all my kids. My Favorite Meal is Hamburgers and French Fries, and there is nothing like having your whole family at dinner. A little known fact about me is that I don't like my food to touch, my husband says i am weird.

i have 6 great kids and a wonderful wife, we have been together for 8 years now. my favorite bible verse is Ephesians 6:11 Put on the whole armor, of God that ye may be able to stand against the evils of the devil. I accepted Christ when i was much younger but participated in baptism this last year. I enjoy spending time with my kids, I can't wait to see them grow up and see what they become. My favorite food is mexican food ( and i'm not talking Taco Bell). A little known fact about me is that I love UFC fighting.

Unlike most, I came to know the Lord later in my life. After coming to Shiloh for a while, I heard a guest speaker here at Shiloh that really changed everything for me. Tony Nolan was giving his testimony. His story really allowed me to let go of my "old" self and allow Jesus free reign. (Thank you Tony!! You're the bomb!) From that moment forward, I have served in the youth department here at Shiloh. I enjoy music and going to as many Christian concerts as possible. But my passion is photography. I just love sneaking around snapping away at the students (and leaders), trying for that money shot! On Wednesday or Sunday nights before service you can find me looking for a serious game of air hockey so bring it on people! I can also be found in the sound booth running the video and powerpoint presentations, and I just recently added working in the puppet ministry to that list. I don't remember what my life was like before joining the youth department... they keep me young (forever 39!) and I am blessed to be here!

I co-teach 10th Grade Sunday School with Donna. I am most excited to work with the Students of Shiloh because they have the energy of an ever-ready energizer battery. I'm an RN and I began teaching nursing 6 years ago in a local career center and that's when I developed a true passion for the students of Plant City. Happily married for 16 years to my best friend Len, we have six children with only one still at home. My favorite Bible verse is "I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength." Philippians 4:13.

I've been married to my husband Scott for 20 yrs. I have 4 daughters, Brandie, Stacie, Devyn and Elissa, 4 grandsons, Michael, Alec Brandon and Jordyn. I co-teach 11th grade sunday school, and student leadership with my husband. I hope to start a puppet ministry as well. I love to cook, read and spend time with my family and friends
