Youth Sponsors: Ted & Nancy McKown

 

 

Nancy and Ted have been vounteer youth leaders at First Presbyterian Plano since joining the church in 1994.  Their philosophy is that they want to create a safe and nurturing place that the youth can grow in their faith through a balanced program of bible study, mission and service, fun and fellowship as well as providing opportunities where youth can network with other Christian youth.
 
Nancy and Ted met at the University of Tulsa and were married in 1978.  They served as volunteer youth leaders at College Hill Presbyterian, in Tulsa, OK., from 1979 to 1993 before coming to Plano.  They have two children, a son, Neil, and a daughter, Leslie.  Nancy is a manager of centralized data integrity at Texas Health Sysytem, Dallas.  Ted is a special education teacher with the Plano Independent School District.

 

 

Church Secretary: Lynne Schapeler

 

Lynne Schapeler became a member of FPC/Plano in 1978 and has been the church secretary for 26 years.  For Lynne, this is more than a job...it is a ministry for Lynne and her second home.  First Presbyterian Church of Plano is truly the best place to be...working and worshipping for and with her church family.   
 
Lynne and her husband, Stan, have been married for 40 years; they lived in Missouri and Kansas before moving to Texas in 1978.  They have two sons and "daughters"; Brett & Angela, and Brian & Angie.
