I love to travel and teach. I’ve had the privilege of visiting more than a dozen countries. I’m blessed with the privilege of teaching for Lincoln Christian University (IL), Beeson Divinity School (AL) and TCMI, International (Europe).
My favorite pastimes are running, reading, and watching movies. Gail and I both enjoy walking and the great outdoors, especially mountains and rivers. We enjoy good flicks at the cinema whenever we can make time.

Lacey Phillips
I’m from the small town of Catlin, IL, which is located in east-central Illinois-in between Champaign and Danville. I lived in Catlin all my life prior to attending college, and was very active in church, school, and music activities. Music became my main area of interest, and I decided to double major in piano and voice at Lincoln Christian College.
I moved to Quincy and started at Madison Park as an intern in January of 2005. After being here for several months, it became apparent that this church was a good fit for me, so I joined the team of staff members in June.
My husband, Dan, and I were married at Madison Park in June of 2007. He works in the accounting department at Gardner Denver in Quincy. I completed my MM degree in vocal performance from Western Illinois University in May of 2009 and will be pursuing performance opportunities in the Quincy area.
