A mother to three active boys, Suzanne first became involved at Ascension as a parent at the day school. With undergraduate degrees in English literature and journalism from SMU, as well as a masters degree in education from SMU, Suzanne’s career path naturally led her to teach high school English for nine years in Dallas. Currently working on her second masters degree, Suzanne remains committed to promoting lifelong learning for people of all ages. When not busy chasing after her children, Suzanne enjoys walking her two unruly golden retrievers, playing tennis, reading, and watching movies.

John and his wife Nancy have been members at Ascension for 35 years. They have served in various leadership capacities, always finding ways to give back.

Mother Rebecca joined Ascension in June 2026 after having served several churches in the Dallas area. She is married to Scott, an attorney, and they have three sons, Trevor, Elton, and Owen. A native Bostonian, Rebecca moved to Dallas as a toddler (as quickly as she could). At age 10, she moved to Michigan where she finished primary school and earned a Bachelor of Arts and a Juris Doctorate from the University of Michigan. She then returned to Dallas (again, as quickly as she could) where she practiced law for many years before returning to school to earn a Masters of Divinity at Perkins School of Theology at SMU. Rebecca enjoys cycling, baking, hiking, traveling, and singing.

Alice has been an Episcopalian since her early twenties. She has worked in the fields of public education, Christian Formation, and youth theater. When not at work, Alice loves spending time with her two sons.
