Terry is passionate about prayer, missions and encouraging the church to live in holiness. Married to Heather and a recent "quasi empty nester," Terry can be found out in the community coaching or just visiting with whoever wants to chat. When hunting season comes around, he's a bit of a fanatic. He can't hit the broad side of a barn, but he loves to be outside. His experience in business, as a vocational missionary, teacher and pastor helps him make bible teaching practical for us at PPT.

* Music Coordinator: Merri-Lynn Raddatz - This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
Growing up in a talented musical family has greatly influenced Merri-Lynn’s passion for teaching and learning music. This passion began at infancy, while nestled in her mother’s accordion case watching her family play and sing in church. One day, her curiosity got the best of her and she climbed out of the accordion case and onto the drums. She has been using her musical talent ever since. Merri-Lynn possesses a wide range of musical abilities playing various instruments including the piano. While finishing her piano studies, Merri-Lynn also became skilled at the bass guitar and drums. While currently serving as the Music Director at PPT, her desire is to not just "do music" but help others develop both in music as well as their spiritual journeys. She loves the Lord and her number one desire is to live a life of worship not just sing about it.
