Dr. Harry Reeder III is Senior Pastor at Briarwood Presbyterian Church - Birmingham, Alabama. Harry and his wife Cindy hail originally from North Carolina.

Harry and Cindy have three children: Jennifer Toomer, Harry IV (Angie), and Abigail Leib (Ryan).

Additionally, they are the proud grandparents of Brianna, C.J. and Mack Toomer, Matthias, Taylor and Mitchell Elizabeth Leib and Virginia and Winn Turpin.

Pastor Reeder began his undergraduate work at East Carolina University. After his marriage to Cindy, he withdrew in order to allow his wife to finish her Bachelor of Arts in chemistry from University of North Carolina, Charlotte. During the first year of their marriage in 1969, Harry was called by Jesus.

Harry finished his undergraduate work at Covenant College, graduating in 1974. Finishing his Bachelor of Arts Degree in History and Bible, he began to Pastor an Independent Bible Church in the Chattanooga area. This ministry continued for six years, during which he went part-time to Tennessee Temple Seminary. Due to growing convictions in certain areas of theology and ecclesiology, Pastor Reeder resigned his charge in Chattanooga and went into a Pastorate of the Presbyterian Church in America in Miami, Florida- Pinelands Presbyterian Church - while completing a Master of Divinity degree with Westminster Seminary through the Florida Theological Center. Pinelands Presbyterian Church enjoyed the blessing of God's sovereign grace and grew from an attendance of 50 to over 400 during his 3 year year pastorate. In February of 1983, Pastor Reeder was called to Christ Covenant Presbyterian Church as their founding Pastor.
