Lloyd D. (L.D.) is a student of the word and has a passion for discipleship, and helping others fall in love with Jesus, God’s word, and growing in their walk with Christ. Knowing Jesus and following Him is the greatest joy that we can know.

When not serving they love traveling, the beach, the Gators, and especially spending time with their family and friends.
Brenda’s life verse is Philippians 4:13 “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. “
L.D.’s life verse is John 12:32 “and I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself. “
Even though we are far from perfect, we hope and pray that others can see Jesus in us and that they would find hope and encouragement.

ASSOC. PASTOR DOUG & BONNIE QUEEN
Doug and Bonnie started attending Woodlawn in 1994 where they quickly became involved in volunteer ministry roles. Doug has a passion for education and has served as Sunday School Director and Teacher since 1996. In 2016 he surrendered his life to the Gospel ministry (finally some said) and accepted the call as Bi-Vocational Associate Pastor at Woodlawn.
Bonnie’s passion is all about people and she answered her own call to serve on staff as Ministry Assistant
in 1998. In her current role, she uses her organizational and planning gifts, along with her heart for others, in supporting the Pastor and the other ministry leaders at Woodlawn. They both co-lead our Vacation Bible School every summer in order to help share the Gospel with students and youth in our community.
Doug and Bonnie met in high school in 1974 and they were married in 1976. They have a son and daughter-in-love who have blessed them with two fabulous grandchildren. Time away from home is normally spent at the beach (Crescent Beach is preferred) or most often a quick trip to Virginia to spoil the grandchildren.
