Office: 803.773.2260

Shannon Morris was born in Washington St. in 1975. She has lived in SC since she was 8 after her dad retired from the Air Force. She graduated from Sumter high school in 1993 and married her high school sweetheart, Ronnie Morris, Jr., a week later. They are now in the process of adopting 2 little girls, Erin (4) and Jessica (3). The girls have put new meaning in their lives and have changed them in so many ways. Her husband (a minister since 1997) and Shannon have been pastoring Smithville Evangelical Baptist Church since June of 2007 and are very proud of their church family. She is very excited to be working at St. James and looks forward to giving many years of service to such a wonderful and caring church.

 


It takes a lot of great people to make a great church.
We are fortunate to have some very dedicated folks providing leadership at St. James.
