David has been part of the PCC community since summer 2006 when he graduated college in upstate NY and moved out here. He's excited to be engaged to Leah Thomason. During the week, he works as a software engineer for Electronic Arts, working on The Sims 3. At PCC, he's involved through leading a small group and playing bass and singing for the Sunday Night worship service. As of this writing, his word for the season is "light" as in the opposite of "heavy." He's meditating especially on Psalm 131 and what it looks like to let God take the burdens of life and not stress out.

Small Group Leader and Mentor
I am an "older" adult, never married, but always open to being "discovered." The Love of God restores and lifts my spirit and gives me strength to face the day. I am blessed by the Young Adults Ministry because of the energy, optimism and crazy abandon for life that I see and experience when I am around the group. I don't know how to blog; I barely know how to use Facebook. I love classical music; I have it on all the time. My favorite artist is Ludevico Einaudi.
