OUR TEAM

Rev. Andrew Baten

Pastor

Hi! I'm Andrew, a Florida native (Go Gators!) who loves living as a transplant to North Carolina. I am married to Nikki - also a United Methodist pastor - and we have two children - 7-year-old Asher and 2-year-old Ellie. I love everything about food: growing it, cooking it, and of course eating it. I enjoy getting outside with my family to explore the best of what this beautiful state has to offer, and traveling to explore new places.

I am proud to be the pastor of this congregation, and I look forward to walking alongside you on your journey of faith! In addition to my role here, I am also the pastor of Julian UMC (julianumc.org), and of an emerging community of United Methodists in Southeast Guilford County (southeastguilfordumc.org).

I would love to hear from you! You can reach me at 336.339.9892 (call or text) or abaten@wnccumc.net
