MEET OUR STAFF

God is always at work around us, and with that comes change. In mid September 2023, we entered a new season in the life of our church with the resignation of Dr. Rev. Toby Muller. Rest assured…. The Session of Historic Franklin Presbyterian Church and the Presbytery of Middle TN are working together to ensure continuity of ministry and programming throughout the transition period, as well as embarking on the process of a new pastoral search.

We are grateful for the ministry of Pastor Toby during the time she was with us! Our lay leadership is strong, our vision clear and our church and community relationships vibrant! We look to our future with hope and anticipation, our eyes on Christ and where we are being called next.

We invite you to join us in worship and ministry in downtown Franklin!

“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever” – Hebrews 13:8
