The Shaw family officially joined the Anchor Boothbay church family in 2025 and are grateful for how God has led them here. James and Charlie have been married since 2003 and have 4 wonderful highschool and college age children. They began serving in their local church just after getting married and have been involved in different types of ministry ever since. They are originally from Maryland but spent a few years in upstate NY as James attended a Bible institute and served as director of a youth internship program. They have lived in Maine since 2014 and are thankful for Lord’s grace in allowing them to live in this beautiful area of the midcoast. Their goal is to be salt and light to their community, reaching many with the life-changing gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ and helping believers grow as His disciples.
