Ministry Asst. & Financial Secretary - Jane Metcalf
I began my employment with FUMC Hawkins in January 2022. I worked in banking for over 12 years and then began my career with Winnsboro ISD as the Payroll/Benefits/Personnel Specialist. I recently retired from the school after 23 years of service. I have three grown children - Keifer, Becca and Jada. My two dogs and cat keep me company and have made my empty nest not quite so empty!. Gardening is my hobby and "therapy" - I could happily "piddle" around in my yard and flowerbeds from sunup to sundown! As a lifelong Methodist and member of FUMC Winnsboro, I feel right at home with FUMC Hawkins. I am excited to be here and look forward to serving the FUMC Hawkins family!

I am a native of Ft. Worth. My husband Mike, a native of Mineola, and I met as students at the University of North Texas and were married in 1970. I taught English and Spanish in Carrollton Farmers Branch ISD until retirement in 2001, when we relocated to Holly Lake Ranch. I worked briefly in the area before devoting myself once again to music, gardening and reading. Being able to serve the Lord through music is a wonderful blessing for me. I am grateful to the church for opening this opportunity to me. All that I bring to worship through music is a gift of God, nurtured by my parents who supported me through all those years of piano lessons and practice! The best praise I get is that the Lord has spoken somehow to a person through my playing.
