Minister of the Parish
Director
of Children
& Family Ministries
We welcome Cynthia Robbins, our new Director of Children and Family Ministries! Cynthia is currently an Instructional Assistant at East Lyme Middle School, working with sixth graders who have learning disabilities. She received a BA in History from Lake Superior State University, a Master of Arts in Christian Education and a Master of Divinity from Princeton Theological Seminary. Cynthia has worked professionally in the church as both a Director of Christian Education in Cincinnati, Ohio, and an Associate Pastor in Jacksonville Beach, Florida. She resides in E. Lyme with her two children, Josh and Abbey. According to her job description, Cynthia will “coordinate, develop, and enhance the Christian education programming for preschool and elementary age children up through 5th grade. This means Cynthia will be responsible for the planning and staffing of the Lighthouse and Sunday School programs as well as the creative development of memory-making events we can all enjoy as families. Nurturing the faith and sense of belonging of our littlest ones and encouraging a sense of community for our families are central aspects of Cynthia’s position. We welcome her ideas, fresh energy and we offer her our support!
Some of Cynthia’s favorite activities include hiking, running, yoga, and spending time relaxing with her children.
She wishes she had more time to read, but when she does, she tends towards non-fiction – usually in the area of
spiritual development – but sometimes, a magazine is just fine! She also loves a good cup of Starbucks coffee.
