Casey Connors
YOUTH PASTOR
Reverend Casey Connors, affectionately known as “Coach,” has been a Youth Pastor for 13 years and joined the staff at Clarendon Baptist Church in August of 2022. Casey is originally from upstate New York and moved to SC in 2001 when he worked as a coach and teacher at Clarendon Hall School. In 2008, Casey married Jennifer Thompson Connors of Manning, and they have 5 children: Aubrey 28, Bailey 26, Bryce 21, Gavin 19, and Irelynn 14. In addition to being a Youth Pastor, Casey is a Sheriff’s Deputy and a volunteer Firefighter. Pastor Casey and his family enjoy boating, swimming, camping, hiking, hunting, target shooting, fishing, skiing, and all sports and outdoor activities. Our ministry is Bible based learning, to help our youth grow in knowledge of and in relationship with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
“Teach a youth about the way he should go;
even when he is old, he will not depart from it.”
Proverbs 22:6 (HCSB)
Sherri Liles
WORSHIP LEADER
Sherri is a South Carolina native, raised in a loving Southern Baptist home. She became involved in church music from the young age of 13, mentored by her youth pastor in developing her God given talent of playing piano. She later spent 20 years in Massachusetts raising her two daughters, while faithfully serving in worship ministry leadership in her church. When Sherri’s not serving in ministry, she enjoys spending time with her four adorable fur babies. She’s spent her life of 59 years engulfed in church music but has always held a deep passion for worship. She brings a servant’s heart to every opportunity to lead and believes that if only ONE life is touched through her ministry, every step of the journey will be worth it. “Psalm 139”
