Meet The Team

Robin Johnson

Role: Minister of Elementary Ministries

Educational Background: Early Childhood Education Western Kentucky University | Biblical Studies Charis Bible College

Ministry Focus: My heart is deeply drawn to the intricate dynamics within families, recognizing how each member contributes to the wholeness of the family unit. I am dedicated to supporting and guiding parents as they navigate their roles in today’s ever-evolving society. Understanding that children are the cornerstone of family life, I believe in nurturing them with love, setting healthy boundaries, instilling discipline, and leading by example. I am driven by my deep love for children. My mission is to empower and support parents in nurturing their children according to the Word of God. I am passionately committed to helping families cultivate the next generation, endeavoring to provide young minds with biblical truths and tools to flourish and make meaningful contributions to our future.”

Personal Bio: My affection for children began in my youth, as I became the most sought-after babysitter in our small community. This fondness persisted as I pursued studies in education at the local university. It was further affirmed when I started my own family, deepening my love for children and eventually leading me to establish Robin’s Nest Christian Academy, where I dedicated thirty-one years to developing young minds. Now, I carry that same passion to Linked Up Church Children’s Church. In my leisure time, I cherish spending time with my grandchildren and engaging in a game of tennis.

Katie Watson

Role: Linked Up Kids Nursery Director
Educational Background: Savannah State University | Gwinnett Technical College
Ministry Focus: Katie serves as the Nursery Director, overseeing children ages 4 months to 4 years old. Her ministry is rooted in the heart of Scripture, especially Matthew 19:14, where Jesus says, “Let the little children come to Me. Don’t stop them! For the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to those who are like these children.” She believes that serving the smallest among us reflects God’s heart and carries eternal significance. Her passion is teaching tiny humans about Christ and helping build a strong spiritual foundation, so they are spiritually prepared when they graduate to Kindergarten in Linked Up Kids. Within the nursery, children are introduced to God the Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. Through age-appropriate teaching, they begin learning the miracles and stories of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation.
Katie’s ultimate goal is that every child knows God is alive, He loves them deeply, and He is their friend. Connecting babies to God and supporting parents along their spiritual journey fuels her heart and calling.
Personal Bio: Katie leads with compassion and care. She brings a heart devoted to fulfilling God’s will, consistently pursuing purpose and obedience regardless of the cost. Her leadership is marked by grace, humility, and a genuine passion for serving others. She has been happily married to Joseph Watson for over 10 years and treasures time spent with him and their beloved fur baby. Katie enjoys international travel, reading, exploring cultural activities, and shopping.
