Meet Our Officers

Pam Sherrill
President

My name is Pam Sherrill, I am the current President of PCRTL. My husband Jimmy and I have lived in Cookeville since 1976. We have 2 grown and married children, and 4 grandchildren. We are active members of Stevens Street Baptist Church. I have been involved with PCRTL for 5 years. I know that God has called me into this position and I want to be faithful to that call. What higher calling is there than to be a voice for one who isn’t able to speak for himself?

Vice President

Jeff is married to Rose Collins and has 3 children. Dr. Collins is minister of Calvary Christian Church. Jeff has been involved with the education and advancement of the sanctity of human life for many years.
