Meet Our Teachers
Mrs. Jessi Abell

Mrs. Jessi Abell is our 2-year-old classroom teacher here at First Baptist Moultrie. She has taught here since 2022 and she and her husband, Zach, have led the children’s ministry at Lakeside since 2019. Jessi and Zach have three children: Emma, Noah, and Anna. Jessi has a Bachelor’s degree in Child and Family Development from UGA. One of her favorite Bible verses is Psalm 20:7, which says, “Some trust in chariots, and some trust in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.” This verse reminds her that no matter what ‘chariots or horses’ of her day may vie for her devotion, God is always greater and worthy of her absolute trust.
Jessi is beyond excited for the upcoming school year! She cannot wait to meet the sweet little souls she will be teaching, and is ready to watch them grow and learn during their time together. She says, “There is nothing more precious than seeing the ordinary through a child’s eyes. It’s such a sweet reminder of the wonder God has surrounded us with that we often take for granted!”
Mrs. Dedi Paulk

Mrs. Dedi Paulk is our 3-year-old classroom teacher here at First Baptist Moultrie. She has taught here since 2008 and is currently the Children’s Director at Funston Baptist. She and her husband, Lamar, have four children: Abbi Beth, Carlton, J Ben, and Gracie Belle. Her favorite Bible verse is Psalm 37:4, which says, “Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.”
Mrs. Dedi is most looking forward to the children and getting to know them and their families in the upcoming school year. Exciting things are happening with the First Friends program and she is so thankful to be a part of it all.
