WELCOME!
We’re excited to welcome Steve and Laurie Biera to the faith community at Central! Steve grew up in Merkel and Laurie grew up in various towns in Texas as a coach's kid. They met during their time at ACU and have two daughters, Lauren at OSU and Avery at Texas A&M. Laurie works as a speech pathologist for Hereford ISD, and Steve is excited to join Bushland ISD as head baseball coach and assistant football coach. The Bieras are enjoying being in the panhandle and love the friendliness in the Central community!
Rachael Shollenbarger is joining the faith community here at Central! Rachael grew up in Amarillo, moved away, then moved back to Amarillo last summer. She is the granddaughter of Joe and Jan Shollenbarger and loves spending time with them.
