Our Pastor: The Rev. Leslie D. Weber

Pastor Leslie has been serving Grace since 2015.  She is not your "stereotypical Christian."  On top of being a young-is woman, (which some find weird enough for a pastor), she is socially liberal, pro-choice, open/affirming, environmentally conscience, and believes in science.

Our Minister of Music: Morgan N. Hatfield

Picture
Composer, multi-instrumentalist, and singer-songwriter Morgan N. Hatfield has been involved in church music from a young age. (At nine years old, his very first solo performance at church was "God is Bigger [Than the Boogie Man]" from Veggie Tales.) His musical activities over the years at a number of churches around the Hampton Roads area have included playing piano, trumpet, and French horn; singing in choirs; acting in seasonal musical dramas; and leading worship.
 
As an eclectic composer, he has written for a variety of settings and mediums.  His works include:
  • "Blasting Off!" (2016), written for vacation Bible school
  • The score for the short film, "Nothing But…" (2016) that premiered at the Naro Theater in Norfolk
  • Music for a Winter Wedding (2013), for string quartet
  • The Capricious Sprite (2012), a sonata for clarinet and piano.
Current projects include "Confusion (Babel)" for choir and organ and a steampunk musical.
 
Morgan graduated from Old Dominion University in 2014 with a Bachelor of Music in Music Composition. While attending ODU, he studied with Dr. Adolphus Hailstork, Marlene Ford, and Oksana Lutsyshyn. He was a member of the ODU Wind Ensemble and Symphony Orchestra and is a plankowner of the Monarch Marching Band. As part of the Musical Theatre Workshop, he was in productions of Guys and Dolls and Closer Than Ever.
 
In his spare time, he enjoys creative writing, reading and watching science fiction and fantasy, and pursuing other activities that unequivocally define him as a geek.
