Erica McMurtry

Director | Gerholz Center for Christian Counseling

Minister Erica McMurtry is a native of Chicago, Illinois and relocated to Michigan in 2019 to serve as the Director of the Gerholz Center for Christian Counseling, a ministry of the First Presbyterian Church of Flint. Minister Erica has always had a passion to serve the church and its community.  Her volunteer efforts ranged from working in the church’s food pantry to going door to door in the community in attempts to survey the residents’ needs and provide them with resources.  Her love for God and love for serving people, fueled her desire to bridge the gap between her two worlds.  As a result, she went back to school to receive a dual degree – a Master of Divinity and Master of Social Work from Princeton Theological Seminary and Rutgers University, respectively.  She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and also a Spiritual Director, in which she received her training from Oasis Ministries for Spiritual Development.  Minister Erica aspires to help people live their life more abundantly (John 10:10) by providing holistic services. She enjoys being a conduit by which God can transform lives. In her spare time, Minister Erica enjoys watching movies and traveling with her husband Robert.
