Why I Like Working with the Youth: I did not grow up going to a church or youth group but I did long to have adults want to invest their lives in me. And so that's what I want to do. I want to impact lives. I want everyone to know that they were created by a loving God and that He has a purpose for their lives! I want the youth to know they are loved and valuable and can do amazing things for God!

Why I Like Working with the Youth: Youth group helped form a foundation my understanding of God, salvation, and scripture when I was a teen. In such a formative time of growing up, and the culture we’re in now, I truly enjoy helping the youth now digest how the gospel and their faith influences all aspects of life around them. Also, our students are incredibly funny, thoughtful, and caring that it makes each Friday a joy to be there!

Why I Like Working With the Youth: Each season of life presents unique challenges, but I personally found adolescence to be one of the most tumultuous, confusing periods of my life. God taught me a lot in that time period, and the years that followed, and I consider it a privilege to be able to walk with, and hopefully encourage, the youth of San Lo now. I also get to serve on a team alongside some of the most thoughtful, talented, and loving sisters and brothers in Christ!

Why I Like Working with the Youth: I grew up in a Christian home and accepted Christ at VBS. Although I had Christ in my heart, I didn’t know what living for Christ really meant. Youth Group is where I experienced God the most and learned how to live a Christ centered life. Seeing God move in this ministry continues to encourage me everyday to pursue Christ with everything. Till I have nothing left.
