Getting To Know… George Zeravsky
Facilities Manager

It takes a village to run a church, especially one as active as Johns Creek United Methodist Church. The reason it runs so smoothly is because of our dedicated staff, so we wanted to help you get to know them a little better.

A Prayer for George

Creating and Renewing God: you have shown us in Christ that the physical is to be honored and that you desire for the world around us to be renewed. We praise you for the ways this vision for creation and your restoring grace are fulfilled through your servant George as he leads us in the care and keeping of the physical spaces of your church. May his work among bear the fruit of new life as more and more people experience here the gift of your love. Through the same Christ we pray. Amen.

As the facilities manager, what is the craziest thing you’ve had to fix or get fixed at JCUMC?

A preschool mom had a brand new MErcedez Benz about 4 years ago – she got a flat tire. We looked in her trunk and we found the jack, but no tire. She called the dealership and their response was, “you have no tire? It needs to come in.”
