Karen Brown

Mrs. Brown began working as a substitute teacher at St. Paul in January of 2016. In October of 2015,
she left her native home in Northeastern Pennsylvania to move to Western New York and support her
husband’s calling, Pastor Dan Brown, to minister as Head Pastor of Hilton Baptist Church. In
Pennsylvania, Karen taught elementary school in public education beginning in 1988. After moving to
WNY, Karen completed her NYS teacher certification and followed a calling in her own life to accept a
permanent position on St. Paul’s staff as a preschool teacher in September 2016. She has since
remained steadfast in her mission to educate and share the love of Jesus with young children each and
every day.
Karen loves to spend time with and is especially proud of her husband and two grown sons, Bradley &
Brandon. She is an avid lover of nature and enjoys being outside. Her hobbies include gardening, bird
watching, walking, traveling to new places and spending time with her English Springer Spaniel, Lincoln.
In quiet times, Karen enjoys reading historical nonfiction and spiritual devotionals. She also is energized
by music and jumps at the chance to sing & dance at concerts and shows. Karen loves to bring people
together by hosting gatherings and can most often be found in her happy place…the kitchen!
