Introducing Avery McCutcheon, Our New Executive Director

Avery McCutcheon, Executive Director - Thrive Medical Clinic

Rhonda Wrede, our Executive Director of 32 years, officially retired right before Christmas, and as we transition into this new season, we are so thrilled to announce that Thrive Medical Clinic's new Executive Director is our very own Avery McCutcheon! Avery, a Registered Nurse who previously worked in the ER and NICU, joined TMC in July as our Thrive Forward Director. She quickly gained our trust and admiration for her incredible leadership skills, humble wisdom, strategic thoughtfulness and her ability to engage the whole team to achieve more together. She has an acute focus on our mission to reach, love and serve abortion-vulnerable women in our community and empower them to thrive in a life-affirming pregnancy choice.

We conducted a nationwide search for our new Executive Director, but after a few months God made it clear to Rhonda (and then to the entire board and staff) that the person He had chosen and prepared for this role was right under our nose. Rhonda has trained Avery on the new role, and she will be available to Avery for consults throughout the year.

Get to Know Avery & Her heart for the ministry!

We love Avery and have full confidence in her ability to follow God's will and lead us into this new chapter of His ministry.

We need your continued partnership, support, and encouragement to be able to steward this ministry and be vessels for the Holy Spirit to save and transform lives. Email Avery at Avery@ThriveMedicalClinic.org to introduce yourself and schedule a tour of TMC. She would love to meet you!

And finally, we want to say thank you to Rhonda. She has devoted her heart and life to leading this ministry for over three decades. Through countless hardships, she has faithfully fought the good fight and has been a champion for God’s transforming love and saving grace for countless women, men and children throughout our region. Her profound impact is generational and eternal. Each of us on staff have been changed by her love for us and her courageous servant leadership. We love her dearly and wish her every joy in retirement.

And to all of our amazing supporters, thank you for your faithful partnership and prayers. You mean more to us and our patients than you'll ever know.
