Get to know Maggie Ethridge, our Fellowship Director!

Maggie is originally from Jackson, MS. Her degree is in Interior Design. She has done medical and corporate design work. She has also taught art and history for homeschool elementary students.

Maggie has been married to Phil for 20 years, but they began dating in 9th grade. They have 4 children - Wilson will be a senior in high school this year, graduating from St. Augustine, Miller will be a part of the first high school class at CCS, Eliza Grace is in the 7th grade at CCS, and Greta will be doing 2nd grade at home with Maggie. Phil is a product engineer with Navagis. They have been members at POPC for almost 20 years.

Maggie loves being a part of so many aspects of her church families’ lives. From weddings, to get togethers on campus, to times of bereavement - she loves getting to be with our people at their highs, lows, and everything in between. No week is ever the same.

Her hobbies include painting by commission, needlework, playing with her dog Ollie, and constantly renovating something (either in real life or in her head!). Maggie also loves to travel- She has gotten to go to 49/50 states and 5/7 continents. 

Her lifelong local favorite place to eat is Kiefers, and her new favorite place is Jutamas. It's hard to beat a sandwich from Basil's, and a gingerbread man from Primos is a guilty pleasure of hers.

Her first job as an interior design intern was a quarter million square foot hose factory that was being converted into a medical office building. 

The Ethridges definitely ring cowbells. She also loves watching her kids compete. Lots of CCS, rec, Upward, and St. A cheering going on from this mama!
