Jacqueline Rose-Tucker
District Superintendent
Rome Carrollton District
After serving as an ordained elder for 21 years, Jacqui Rose-Tucker was appointed superintendent of the Rome-Carrollton District in June 2005. She possesses a love for the accountability, structure, doctrines, and theology of the United Methodist Church, a burden for the lost, and a deep abiding faith in Jesus Christ, which she inherited from her uncle, aunt, and grandmother.
Highlights of Jacqui's ministry include receiving over 800 confessions of faith after preaching to an African village; serving for nine years at an inner city church where 99.5 percent of the youth went on to college; expanding the local, national, and international mission programs of Norcross Church; and serving in three cross-racial appointments. Her latest honor is in being chosen the first female African-American district superintendent in the North Georgia Conference.
Her No. 1 goal is to see every church in the district engaged in some type of mission outreach in the community. To jumpstart this initiative, Jacqui will schedule meetings with pastors and churches, offer training on transforming lives through relational evangelism, plan district-wide mission trips, and ask larger churches to partner with smaller churches when forming mission teams. Three other objectives include equipping pastors with the skill sets needed to grow a church, providing support to pastors' spouses, and identifying how to more effectively minister to the growing Latino population.
