Carol Campbell Davis grew up in the United Methodist Church in Chapel Hill, North Carolina while attending the Chapel of the Cross sporadically.
After moving to Winston-Salem in 1991, Carol was invited by a work colleague, Marty Lentz, to join the St. Paul’s choir. She did so, and has devotedly served the St. Paul’s choir since that time.
Carol, her husband Todd, and daughter Sarah have been members of St. Paul’s parish since 1993. Their son, Daniel Todd, was baptized there on All Saints Day in 1995. Both children participated in children’s choir programs into their high school years.
Carol has served on the Finance Committee and as the parish Treasurer. She was a member of the Search Committee for organist/choirmaster in 2016, and has served as a lector from time to time.
For Carol Davis the choir is her community within the larger community. Participating with this group connects her to the seasons of the church in a fundamental way. It gives her life spiritual structure and discipline. Connecting to weekly rehearsals and serving through music show her spiritual depth and fulfillment with fellow choir members and God.
