Rev. Pam Criswell is a United Methodist pastor serving Bay United Methodist Church and Trumann First United Methodist Church in Arkansas. She is passionate about creating churches that are welcoming, Christ-centered, and actively involved in their communities.
Known for her warm personality, sense of humor, and practical approach to ministry, Pastor Pam loves connecting faith with everyday life. She has a heart for people of all ages and enjoys developing creative ministries, community outreach projects, Bible studies, and worship experiences that help people grow in their faith.
Outside of ministry, Pam enjoys spending time with her husband, Wes, and embracing life with plenty of laughter, adventure, and a little Southern sass. Her favorite Scripture is Jeremiah 29:11, reflecting her belief that God is always at work, even when we cannot yet see what He is doing.
She believes the church should not simply exist in a community—it should love the community, serve the community, and be a light within it.
