Sherri Smith has been happily married to Herschel for 27 years, and
they have four children: Joshua (computer programmer), Joseph
(violinist in the Austin Symphony Orchestra), Daniel (United State
Marine currently serving in Iraq), and Devon (Nursing Student).  They
also have one grandchild, Chloe, daughter of Joshua and wife Ashley.

Sherri has worked in support of church ministry for more than 25
years, first as pianist and musical assistant, then for the last
twelve years as administrative assistant and officer manager for the
Pastor of Worship and Fine Arts and Interim Senior Pastor of a 2200
member church in Charlotte, N.C.

After much prayer and reflection, Sherri believes that she is called
to serve and that God has graciously and providentially worked in her
life to bring her to First Presbyterian Church in Belmont, N.C.
