Nursery Coordinator

Our New Nursery Coordinator is Milka Aristide, I’ve been married to my wonderful husband Kenny for 14 years. I’m a homemaker to our four amazing children. I love working with children. Prior to having my own family, I was a substitute teacher for many years and to be in a classroom every day brought me so much joy. I’ve been a part of FPC ever since my son started attending preschool. Once I heard of the quest program and became involved I was hooked! The rest, as they say, is history.

I was born in Vero Beach and grew up attending youth group. It brings me joy to walk alongside the children as they discover who God is and learn how to live out their faith in everyday life.
