Amy Benner is excited to use her experiences and knowledge that she is a sinner saved by grace to continue to watch God do new things in our congregation and beyond. Prayer is a foundational spiritual practice of our faith!  Amy is excited to partner along with the prayer team and other leaders to see prayer continue to grow in our church and to watch it become even more vital throughout the congregation. 

Amy’s vision is that our prayer corner would be full on Sunday mornings, that Tuesday night prayer (7:00pm at MJMC) would be bursting with energy, and that our first thought when we have a decision, a hurt, a joy or a burden would be to bring it to the Lord in prayer. Amy is married to Loren and they have four children.  She works at Rocky Acre Farm B&B.  Amy enjoys volunteering with Bible2School in Columbia.  In her free time you will find her on the pickleball court, riding a bike, or enjoying most anything active with family and friends.
