	Charlie Baile, Pastor Charlie grew up in Maryland and was drawn to the Lord through the ministry of Liberty Baptist Church in Lisbon, MD. Shortly after his conversion at the age of 17, Charlie did his undergraduate work at Nyack College in Nyack, NY. Continuing to sense God's calling towards the pastorate, Charlie continued his education at Reformed Theological Seminary in Charlotte. Charlie was ordained in the PCA in 1998 and was an Assistant Pastor for four and one half years at Mitchell Road Presbyterian Church before becoming the Pastor of Shady Grove. Charlie is married to Kim and they have three children: Haddon, Elise, and Karis. They reside in Montgomery Village.
	Tom Parker, Minister of Congregational Care Tom is also a native of the county. He grew up on a farm in the Aspen Hill area and attended John F. Kennedy High School, along with his wife, Priscilla. At Bucknell University, Tom worked with Young Life as a volunteer leader. Tom graduated from Gordon-Conwell, after which he pastored a church in Philadelphia for five years. Returning to Montgomery County in 1983, Tom and Priscilla began attending Shady Grove. Tom became a Ruling Elder in 1991 and joined the staff in 1993. The Parkers have three children: Carrie, Ben, and Abby. They live in Silver Spring.
	Andy Pickens, Assistant Pastor of Administration Andy is a native of the Baltimore area. Through the witness of a church youth group in high school, the Lord drew Andy to Himself in 1975. He married his high school sweetheart, Kathy, in 1979. After studying engineering at Virginia Tech, Andy worked with IBM in various locations before being transferred to Maryland in 1987. The Pickens family joined Shady Grove in 1987, and Andy became a Ruling Elder in 1989. Soon after that, he began to sense God’s call to the pastorate. He earned his M.Div. degree from Chesapeake Theological Seminary in 1996 and was called by Shady Grove as an Assistant Pastor in 2005. Andy and Kathy live in New Market and have four children: Matthew, Alex, Jon, and Valerie.
