Sherri Holt
Media & Outreach Coordinator
Sherri is married to David Holt and they have seven children and many grandchildren.
Sherri & David and several of their children began attending RSBC in 2008.
Sherri’s love for designing marketing materials, combined with her administrative background has allowed her to use her gifts in many areas of service at RSBC.
Sherri worked as an Administrative Assistant, Office Manager, & Litigation Assistant before opening a graphics print shop in Tarkington.
After 12 years in business, they elected to sell their printing business to devote more time to church and retirement. Sherri took on the role of Volunteer Coordinator at RSBC. She helped organize events and coordinate volunteers for RSBC & Tarkington Helping Hands Food Pantry, which is sponsored by RSBC. Sherri helped RSBC Members stay connected during the Covid Pandemic and continue to serve our community in the food pantry. Over the years, she has volunteered for everything from helping in the kitchen, to working outside cleaning-up brush on work-days.
In a continued effort to reach those in and around our community, the RSBC Deacons created a staff position of Outreach/Online & Print Media Coordinator. This position allowed Sherri to use her creative gifts and organizational skills to help RSBC continue to reach those in and around our community through various social media platforms, as well as printed media in the church & communities.
“I feel blessed to be able to use my gifts for His Kingdom.”
Favorite Scripture:
But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. Matthew 6:33-34
