Patrick Duncan, Worship Pastor

patrick-duncanPastor Patrick came to Highland Park in March 2022.  Patrick and his wife Sadie have two children, Kalee and Sawyer.  He majored in Music at Limestone College where he received his Bachelor of arts degree, and then went on to get his Master of Music degree from the Petrie School of Music at Converse College.  After a brief stint in ministry in his early 20s, Patrick became an educator and taught at Newberry College.  But, Patrick began to feel the calling to full-time ministry in late 2014.  Patrick has been serving vocationally since the spring of 2015.

One thing you will notice very quickly about him is that he has a pastor's heart and truly cares for others.  He has a true desire to lead others to worship God in spirit and in truth.
