Cara Mullen ~ Church Administrator
My husband Harold and I have been married for 30 years and have three wonderful children that we love spending time with. Our son Elliott is a recent graduate of Tarleton State University with a degree in communications and a minor in history. His experience at Tarleton was so rewarding that his twin sisters, Molly and Mallory are also attending Tarleton and enjoying it very much. Both of our daughters are working on their education degrees and hope to be teachers and coaches when they graduate.
I was born and raised in the Dallas area and lived there until our family moved to Dripping Springs in 1995. We love the hill country and feel blessed to be here. Prior to moving to Drippin’ I was a high school business teacher for 10 years. In 1997 I went to work for DSUMC as a part time secretary. In 1999 I accepted the position that I currently enjoy as Church Administrator. Working for the church has been a real blessing for me and has helped me answer my call to ministry by using the skills and talents that the Lord has blessed upon me.
Vicki Rector ~ Church Secretary
I have been attending DSUMC since September of 2001. My husband Steve,stepson Steven and I moved to Dripping Springs in 1996 from the Dallas area. We love the Hill Country and all of it's outdoor activities. My favorite way to pass the time, is in my garden. I have a a quote at the entrance of our garden that says, "To plant a garden is to have hope, and believe in the future".....I Love being part of the body of Christ.

My husband and I have lived in Drippin’ about 18 years and have loved the strong sense of community and small town feel.
Lysbeth Smith ~ Afternoon Church Secretary
I have worked at my church since 1998. I started working in our church nursery and after school program in high school. I have served as Nursery Director, webmaster and secretary, MDO Director and Assistant Director of our Children’s Weekday Ministries. In 2010, I moved back to work in the church office and prepare for having baby girl #2 in the Spring.
I enjoy many things, including taking my daughter for a window-shopping walk in the mall and weight-lifting, but my most favorite is just spending time with family, my darling 20 mos old daughter, Kairi, and husband of 12 years, Edgar. I have lived in DS since I was 6 months old and went to all 12 grades (plus Kindergarten and preschool) here in Dripping'.
