CENTRAL'S STAFF

Scott Bowerman was born and raised in northern New Jersey. While a freshman at Ursinus College, he awakened to faith in Christ, and also met his future wife Susan. After working as a software engineer, Scott was called to ministry and was educated at Princeton Theological Seminary. Scott has served churches in South Carolina and Virginia, and was the founding pastor of New Kirk Presbyterian in Blythewood, S.C. His articles and sermons have been published in Pulpit Digest, Preaching, Net Results and other periodicals. Scott and Susan have three grown children, and though he looks far too young, Scott is the proud grandfather of foure. Susan is a foreign language teacher who has taught both French and Spanish at the high school and middle school levels. Scott is an avid cyclist, a mediocre golfer and obsessed with making great pizza. After 26 years of ministry in the South, Scott is glad to be back on the northern side of the Mason-Dixon line, even if just barely.

ANDREA HADIK
Andrea Hadik was born in Chambersburg, PA, almost 27 years ago. She grew up in Mercersburg, then moved 2 hours away to a small Christian college at the age of 17. After 2 1/2 years of studying music education, she began to feel lost and an opportunity came up for her to move to Fairbanks, AK, to be a teacher's aid. She spent 6 of the best years of her life there teaching middle school and working with inner-city church kids/youth ministry. This was a life changing experience that has shaped her view of how to reach out to young people through relationships with the intent of leading to the opportunity to show Jesus' life and love to them. While in Alaska, Andrea met and married her husband of three years, Joshua Hadik, and had their daughter, Kamea. They are her first passion and she can't imagine life without them. Last spring, Andrea & Josh felt the call to move back to PA. Since moving back, Andrea worked as a substitute teacher at James Buchanan Middle School & finished her MBA. Andrea likes a challenge and enjoys staying busy. When she's not working, you can find her doing one of many things: chasing her 2 year old, reading, playing volleyball, ultimate frisbee, mountain biking, or watching favorite tv shows.
Andrea is so excited about the opportunity to work at Central. She has been praying for an opportunity to open up that she will feel deeply passionate about and she knows this is it.

Erin was raised in Newark, DE alongside a family of music lovers! As a child, she spent most of her time singing, dancing, playing piano, making silly videos with her siblings and friends, playing with her dogs, and spending summer days in the neighborhood pool! Erin graduated Summa Cum Laude from Shenandoah Conservatory with a BFA in Musical Theatre in Spring 2009. Beginning a month after graduation, she performed for a living in numerous regional theatres throughout the United States. In late winter 2011, Erin received God's call into ministry; after fighting it for a while, she finally accepted His intervention and began applying for church jobs. Central has been the answer to the prayer Erin never knew she had! She loves working with the community here, studying God's word, watching Him work in beautiful ways, and worshipping with such a wonderful church family. In Erin's free time, she continues to perform, write music, travel, instruct worship cardio, volunteer, and spend time with her wonderful husband, sons, family, friends, and dogs.
