Kandra Brummett - Chair

I have been a member at Gayton for about eight years. I currently serve as a Deacon and on the ministry team at Sunrise Villa Assisted Living. You can usually find me worshipping in the Celebration service.  

I am a native Richmonder and a graduate of Longwood College. I work at John Tyler Community College as Graduation Coordinator. My favorite pastime is relaxing with a book and a cup of tea. 

Anne Hill - Vice Chair

I have been a member of Gayton since the late 90’s, and have served on the Stewardship Task Group, Missions & Evangelism Council, and the Discipleship Council, as well as singing in the choir and occasionally teaching a Sunday school class. My husband Palmer and I have been married for 27 years and our son Zach grew up in the church, was baptized here and is also a member of Gayton. 

 

After graduating from JMU and working for a few years, I attended University of Richmond for an MBA and Law degree. I worked for a law firm for a time and then moved to insurance companies, where I’ve handled malpractice claims against lawyers for over 30 years. I am now working part time and planning to retire in 2025.

 

Over the years, I’ve been blessed to have many opportunities to reach out to church members/attendees as well as to the local community, to serve and spread the good news that Jesus loves each of us and has a plan to transform our lives. These have included jail ministry in Richmond city jails through their chaplain, craft and cooking ministry, working with challenged teens at Jackson Field Homes, and most recently meeting with ladies in recovery through the True Recovery program here in Richmond. I look forward to continuing to serve.

 

Eric Perkins

My wife, Chrissie, and I have been members at Gayton Baptist Church for over 20 years. Our two daughters, Alexandra (19) and Madison (14), have grown up at Gayton and were baptized here. Over the years I have enjoyed various Sunday school classes, men’s bible study groups, volunteering with youth and Feed My Starving Children events, and supporting other church ministry efforts such as the Gayton Cares Food Pantry and Jazz Nativity.

 

I grew up in Bluefield, WV, and went to college and law school at the University of Virginia. I have lived in the Short Pump area since 1996, and I practice small business and nonprofit law through my firm, Perkins Law, PLLC. I am a charter member and officer of the Rotary Club of Short Pump. I am an avid tennis player and actively involved in the tennis community in various capacities, including high school tennis coach at Deep Run High School and chair of the national Sportsmanship Committee for the United States Tennis Association.

Ted Price

My wife Kim and I have been members at Gayton Baptist Church since the mid 90’s. We have been

married for 37 years. Our son Brady grew up in the church and was baptized here.


I grew up in Goochland County and was baptized at Ridge Baptist Church in Richmond at age 10. After

graduating from Ferrum Junior College I worked in the construction industry for 41 years until my

retirement in May of 2023.


I have served on several building committees, performed teller duties, served previously as a Trustee

and helped with Sunday School classes for middle schoolers during my time at Gayton.

I enjoy playing golf, walking and spending time with family and friends.
