Fred Lyon is a cradle Presbyterian who grew up in Sparta, New Jersey and Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania. His education includes undergraduate studies at Bucknell University and graduate work at Princeton Theological Seminary, Virginia Theological Seminary, and Union Presbyterian Seminary. Fred has served congregations in Connecticut, New Jersey, New York, Virginia, Maryland and, most recently, Illinois. He brings to First Presbyterian Church eighteen years of head of staff experience, eight of which has been serving in an interim capacity. Fred is married to Jan Edmiston with whom he has three now grown children---Ben (married to Sahar), Jay, and Libby---as well as a very willful yet lovable lab mix named Spense. Fred and Jan live in Charlotte. They enjoy hiking and, when actually possible, taking road trips to explore new places.
