  • judie hahn

    worship ministry director & Media coordinator

    Responsibilities:

    Judie leads and coordinates the musical and media areas of our worship services. Along with playing piano and singing, her driving passion is to see the church grow in the knowledge of God's character and the truth of His word in hopes that it will lead to an unhindered, complete surrendered worship of our Savior. She loves leading the band and working with the sound and media teams to help them continually be reminded that they are there to lead by being true worshippers... and have a lot of fun playing music too!


    Bio:

    Judie has been at The Church of the Highlands since February 2009. Her husband Lance, was called to be our pastor in June of 2009 and Judie joined the staff later in 2012 as worship leader. She and Lance have 3 boys and 1 girl. There is never a dull moment in this household!


    Hobbies:

    Judie might be seen up front, leading or on "stage" but her greater passion is to lead and disciple the four little ones in her own home. Her love is for the Lord, her family and the people God places around her. If she can ever squeeze in a few moments of spare time, photography, sewing and finding something messy to organize are really high on her list. Dear to Judie's heart right now is Zephaniah 3:17..."The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing."
