Meet Our New Members: Kacey and Grant Todd
| Meet Our New Member | Mary Splawn
Have you met Kacey and Grant Todd and their children Calvin, Caroline, and Clark? Kacey and Grant joined our church on Sunday, March 6. We hope you'll get to know them a little better through our latest "Meet Our New Member" blog, and that you'll have the chance to connect with them soon!
Tell us about your family.
We both grew up in Owensboro, Kentucky. We lived right down the street from each other our whole lives and after dating in high school, we dated long distance for nearly a decade. Kacey went to college at Samford, which is where she fell in love with Birmingham. Grant moved to Birmingham right after our wedding in 2014. We now have three kids - Calvin (5), Caroline (4), and Clark (10 months).
Where do you work?
Grant works for an environmental service company, Dragonfly Pond Works. Kacey is a pharmacist at Liberty Pharmacy in Liberty Park.
What led you to Mountain Brook Baptist Church?
We had been members at the Church at Brook Hills since our time in Birmingham, but were looking for a church that was smaller and closer to the community where we live. As we tried out many churches, we checked out Mountain Brook Baptist since our daughter attended the Early Learning Center. Of course every church we visited was warm and caring, but MBBC was on an entirely different level. The focus on teaching, discipleship, and serving one another's needs was the perfect example of how the early Christian Church was described in the book of Acts.
What is your favorite passage of Scripture and/or your favorite hymn or praise song?
Grant: Romans 8; "It Is Well With My Soul"
Kacey: Isaiah 40:31; "How Deep the Fathers Love"
Kids: "The One Where They Break Out of Jail" (Peter in Acts 12); "Go Tell It on the Mountain"
What are some of your hobbies and interests?
Seeing new places, enjoying great food, and cheering for the Kentucky Wildcats
What is a fun fact other people may not know about you?
Grant is the creator of the famous "Todd's Ivy Balm" poison ivy treatment and Kacey has a twin brother.
