Deborah Miller

Deborah Miller, Financial Secretary/Administrative Assistant

Deborah Miller has been a part of the Temple family since she began coming to Sunday School and church at the age of 5. After working in Accounting for the State of NC, being a stay at home Mom and working in Human Resources at Belk, Deborah was blessed in August 1998 to begin working in the church office as the receptionist. Deborah’s role with Temple has evolved to be the Financial Secretary/Administrative Assistant. The blessings of my life have included my family, my husband, my two children and their significant others, and my five beautiful grandchildren. But, one of my greatest blessings has been serving my church and the congregation. God has been very good to me and has given me His grace to work a job that I absolutely love.
