Blessed to serve Our Community
Killian Hill Christian School (KHCS), as a ministry of Killian Hill Baptist Church (KHBC), exists to assist parents in their God-given responsibility of educating their young people by providing a high-quality spiritual and academic program, enhanced by balanced fine arts and athletics while encouraging them to live disciplined, Christ-centered lives. The school board composed of members of KHBC meets regularly, and although not involved in daily school operations per se, the board prays for everyone in the school and participates in decisions of policy, procedure, and discipline. The board is composed of at least five members and are particularly qualified for service in an educational institution.

Chief among his accomplishments was the establishment of the organization’s leadership and management development programs in Europe in 2003. Since retiring in 2015, Tom has served in a number of capacities in addition to the KHCS School Board. As a member of Killian Hill Baptist Church (KHBC), Tom is actively involved in the music ministry of the church. In addition, Tom also served six years as the Sunday School Superintendent, a role in which he was responsible for developing much of the curriculum used in the Adult Bible Fellowship classes. Outside of KHBC, Tom also serves as a board member for the Berea School of Ministry, a college-level institution in the Atlanta area dedicated to training Hispanic pastors and church workers for ministry. And since 2017, he has been assisting Biblical Ministries Worldwide, a mission board based in Atlanta, with the delivery of their candidate training, as well as the formulation and implementation of an organizational strategy. Both Tom and Sharon, his wife of 50 years, are avid readers, and enjoy playing golf and traveling. Their greatest satisfaction, however, comes through the investment of their time in the lives of their two children, Lisa and Randy, and their respective families, including two grandchildren, Benjamin and Hannah, all of whom live in the Atlanta metro area.
