New Series begins Wednesday!

Joy in Connection with April Robinson

We’re starting a new series on Wednesday nights with April Robinson called Joy in Connection! Join us at 6 pm February 2nd, 9th, and 16th as April teaches us how to connect with ourselves, each other, and with Jesus!

April Robinson is currently serving at Samford University as the Assistant Vice President for Student Development and Support.  Before stepping into this role as an administrator, she spent the first 19 years of her service at Samford as a Minister to Students in the Office of Spiritual Life.  Though her professional role in Student Affairs has shifted in recent years, her personal mission of supporting students and helping them create meaningful and successful college experiences persists.

April completed her Bachelor of Arts at Samford in 1993 and went on to earn her Master of Theological Studies at Duke University.  After several years of pastoral ministry and her ordination in the Baptist church, she returned to Samford in 2000 to join the Student Affairs staff and still describes her work with students as “vocational bliss”.

April and her husband, Mike Parrish, have three daughters, Elizabeth (22), Emma (18) and Bella (17).
