The Connectional YACM Steering Committee would like to officially welcome the Reverends Brian and Felica Thompson as the new advisors of the Young Adult In Christian Ministries.

Rev. Brian R. Thompson, Sr. was born November 1 in Chapel Hill, NC. He was educated in the Chatham County and continued his education at Saint Augustine’s College in Raleigh, NC, where he completed his Bachelor of Arts Degree in Communication. He obtained a Masters in Theological Studies and is continuing his education at Duke Divinity School to obtain his Master of Divinity.

He is married to Rev. Felica Raines Thompson who was born September 11 in Washington, DC. She holds a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Education from St. Augustine's College in Raleigh, North Carolina. Not long after receiving her degree, she became a Business Education Teacher and Varsity Cheerleading Coach in the Wake County Public School System.

In November of 2001, Rev. B. Thompson was appointed to Simon Temple African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, where he currently serves as their full time pastor. God has blessed Simon Temple to become one of the fastest growing churches in Zion, over 1,000 souls have been led to the Lord and more than 2,500 have joined the church under his leadership.

They are the proud parents of two healthy miracles from God – Alexis (9) and Brian II (7).

We are really excited to have them as our new advisor and look forward to working with them. But as it is written, Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for them that love him. (1 Corinthians 2:9)
