Reverend Amy Hutchison
Rev. Amy Hutchison was called to ministry in 2009 after serving for 7 years in nonprofit resource development. She heard the call from God on her life while serving at a Christian concert. Her passion for music and seeing all grow in their faith came together in one night in this call.

Rev. Amy is a competitive powerlifter, a National Referee, and a Club Coach with USAPL, and is passionate about the connection between our physical bodies and our spiritual lives. She lives with her dog, Macey, a Jack Russell Terrier who enjoys anything water.
Preschool Director Ann Crouse

– I love my job!
– I taught Kindergarten at Denton Elementary School from 1976-2011
– I love children’s books
I retired from teaching Kindergarten on July 1, 2011. Friends questioned me about what I was going to do now that I was retired. My response was, “God will provide something as I am not sitting at home.” In July the preschool’s assistant job became open and then the teacher’s job. So in September 2011 I met my first class of preschoolers. Kindergarten had truly been my love and passion but preschool replaced that quickly. I love the preschoolers and their families. Preschool is truly God sent!
Four Things I Love: Spending time with my grandson, Reading, Exploring Pinterest, and Scarecrows
Logan Berg, Youth Director
Logan joined the staff in 2022. He is a 4th grade teacher at Denton Elementary School and loves his students! When he isn’t at the school or at the church, you can find him on ball fields, at dance recitals, or anywhere you might find a child needing God’s love! In just his short time here, he has tripled the size of the youth group just from the amount he loves these kids!
Margaret Harris, Choir Director
– I enjoy travel. (One of my treasured memories is attending a choral and performing arts festival in Wales, United Kingdom in the summer of 2014.)
-My husband and I have a son and daughter who have blessed us with five grandchildren.
-I have attended Central UMC Denton, since birth.
I am a retired social studies teacher and educational consultant. My vocal lessons began in the third grade, and I have been singing ever since! At the age of twelve, I joined the Central UMC Choir. In 1988 I became the choir director. It is an absolute blessing to work with our dedicated choir members and musicians as we endeavor to witness to the glory of God through music.
Four things I love: many genres of music, collecting bells and Christmas Tree ornaments, reading, walking
