Daryl Acker
How long have you been a member of Grace Fellowship?
I have been a member at Grace since 2016.
What do you do as a career?
I am the manager of the engineering project management group at TE Connectivity, formerly Creganna Medical.
Could you tell us about your family?
I have been married to DeAnna for 15 years (going on 16 years). We have 2 sons, Isaac and Caleb. Isaac participates in the middle school boy’s youth group. Caleb attends the kid’s ministry on Sundays. My wife supports Grace Youth. My oldest son is on the traveling basketball team, so on weekends during the winter you will find us at basketball games.
Where do you serve at Grace Fellowship?
I serve as one of the middle school boy’s youth leaders.
What are your passions?
God has given me a passion for teaching. It can be either biblical or academic teaching. God has put me in situations and given me experiences that I love sharing with students. I love teaching youth about Jesus and how I became a believer.
Why do you want to serve as an elected leader (Position) at Grace Fellowship?
It is truly an honor to be nominated for the responsibility of elder at our church. I take any responsibility to represent our church as a privilege. I have always viewed myself as a servant leader, and I see this role and its responsibility to serve our members and bring more hope and purpose to those who are lost.
Is there anything else you would like to share?
I am from Mississippi, so I am a New Orleans Saints fan.
