First, let me say what a privilege it is for me to serve Parkway Community Church as Lead Pastor, a church that is cutting edge and relevant to the world that we live in. My wife, Sheila, and I are both excited about the future that God has for this great group of people. Sheila and I have been married for 23 years and have two great boys; Ryan, 20 and Ethan, 16. They both share our love for God and ministry. And lest we forget, we have a Cocker Spaniel named Drake, who is in constant need of prayer.
We love football, golf, hunting, skiing, and anything that has to do with the outdoors. We believe in building strong families and reaching out to others to show them that God’s grace can do the same for them as it has done for us. I would love to meet you this Sunday at Parkway Community. So come check us out, there is a seat waiting for you!

Hi, I’m Jeff McAffee. I’m married to Kendra, the best and most beautiful wife and mother ever to grace the earth. We were married in 1995 and we have three wonderful kids, Ethan, Anna, and Ella. I’ve spent most of my life here in Phoenix but I’ve done some traveling and even lived overseas for a while. I’ve been a missionary, gone to seminary, and taught high school and college. I’ve had my share of successes and failures throughout my life and I’m thankful for every God-ordained step of the way. I love God, family, and country.
When I’m not doing my thing here at the church or spending time with family, I can be found on the racquetball court, golf course, or warming the booth of a great diner around town enjoying coffee and fellowship with a good friend.
Parkway Community Church is the real deal. We’ve always been a place of healing, reconciliation, and new life because we try our best to never hinder the mission of the Spirit of God. God really loves you. He wants you. He wants you healthy, whole, and happy. He wants you living life to the fullest, a life lived through Him. Please visit us soon because your best days are ahead of you!

Minister of Music / Executive Assistant
Stephanie Towne

Hello! I'm Stephanie. My husband Travis and I came to Parkway in the summer of 2000 from Lee University. We instantly fell in love with Arizona (Phoenix in particular) and have loved it ever since.
I'm now the Minister of Music at Parkway and am enjoying every minute of it. This is our fourth year as host-parents to Surlah, our foreign exchange student from South Korea, and we are also enjoying our beautiful one-year-old baby, Alexis Lynn. Travis is currently deployed with the 2-285th Aviation Regiment and will be headed to Iraq in December.
I love all things music, but can't stand watching American Idol. My favorite TV shows are "Chuck", "Ace of Cakes", and "Iron Chef". In my spare time, I love to work on personal projects - like writing musicals and painting my laundry room. I really love spending hours talking to friends, cooking together, and watching movies.
My quirk? I can't stand to watch a movie more than once! My personal goal in the next five years is to visit Savannah, Georgia and Prince Edward Island, Canada - oh, and go on the Disney cruise again! If you see me around the campus, I might be a little busy (they tell me that's just my personality) but I'm never too busy to meet you!
