Meet Candace Smith!

Candace is a people person to a fault, as she will strike up conversations in grocery store aisles, or with cashiers, drive through window attendants, or with anyone who needs a kind, caring word. Her passion for people is reflected in her work and ministry background, which includes case management, customer support services, teaching, curriculum planning, activities and events planning, mentoring, leading Bible studies and small groups, and assisting in various areas of church life.  Although she is the newest member of our staff, she has already become an integral part of our team and our children and families love her!

Candace, who is often called Candy, is Jamaican by birth and culture, but grew up in New York and Delaware. She says this makes her “Jamerican”! Candy lives in New Castle with her family including three wonderful children with whom she enjoys talking and laughing.  Whether dancing or watching a movie, it is always a good time among them!
