Help Fill the Free Little Pantries!

Our Free Little Pantries are running low! Let’s share the hope of the Resurrection by helping our neighbors facing food insecurity. Please bring non-perishable food, canned goods, or hygiene items - collection baskets are in the East Wing. You can also give financially by marking your gift “pantries.” Let’s share Christ’s love in a tangible way!

Meet Rev. Tracie Ashley, Co-Pastor of the South Pinellas Connection

She is a United Methodist pastor shaped by a deep commitment to preaching, pastoral care, justice, and inclusion. With a heart for grace-filled communities, she brings creativity, compassion, and a collaborative spirit to her ministry.

 

Over the years, she has faithfully served congregations with vision and care, helping people live out their faith in meaningful ways. She is especially passionate about creating welcoming spaces where individuals of all backgrounds and identities can encounter Christ’s love and grow as disciples.

 

Her leadership reflects a strong call to justice and equity, grounded in the belief that the church is called to embody God’s radical grace in the world. Pastor Tracie is grateful for the opportunity to continue walking alongside God’s people in love and faith.
