Reverend Macon Armistead

Minister of Congregational Care

macon.armistead@coronadoumc.org

Rev. Macon Armistead received his M.Div. degree from The Divinity School at Duke University in 2017 and is a provisional deacon in the Alabama-West Florida Conference of the United Methodist Church. Macon’s wife, Amy, is a provisional elder in the Florida Conference and when she received an appointment, the two moved from Montgomery, Alabama to Ormond Beach where Amy is the pastor of First United Methodist of Ormond Beach’s new expression of  church in western Ormond Beach.

When not engaging in the full and life-giving ministry of the Church, Macon enjoys singing, watching movies, and being at the beach is his absolute favorite place in the world — so coming to Ormond Beach/New Smyrna Beach was a big win for him! Amy and Macon met at Duke Divinity and were married in June of 2019. They have an English Shepherd named Nora who loves treats, naps, and chasing her ball.
Originally from Hartselle, Alabama, Macon grew up in the United Methodist Church. Ministry has always been a part of his life, even when he was unaware that this would be his vocation. Some passions in ministry of Macon’s are holy listening, community discipleship, compassion and justice ministries, and vocational discernment. Because of this, Macon is very excited to serve as the Minister of Congregational Care at CCUMC as it seems to be a wonderful fit to express his calling with the calling of CCUMC.
