"PRAY TELL..."
Micheal Browning Honored by UWG Alumni
Central’s own Michael Browning is excited to be one of the 2019 recipients of the University of West Georgia
Thriving under 30
Award.
Thriving Under 30
is an annual recognition program sponsored by the UWG Alumni Association. The program recognizes young alumni under the age of 30 who have made a significant impact in their career while exhibiting dedication to UWG and representing the university well. Michael has worked diligently as a teacher, instructional leader and now serves as Assistant Principal at Temple High School in the Carroll County School System.
While in education, Michael has served in many capacities, but prides himself mostly on being an example and mentor for the young men with whom he comes in contact. He was honored as Teacher of the Year in 2017 and is excited about what is to come as Assistant Principal.
Michael’s education at University of West Georgia certainly paved the way to his steady climb as an educator and administrator, all by the tender age of 28! He is highly admired and respected by his colleagues, community, parents, students and his family! He lives by his favorite scripture, Matthew 5:16,
Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven
.
A lifelong member of Central UMC, Michael works in various areas of ministry, primarily serving as Associate Lay Leader and LIFE Group Co-chair
.
He attributes much of his success to the experiences he's had in service to God through Central.
His parents, Michael Sr. and Margo Browning and sister, Monica, are also very involved in the life of Central.
