    I always went to church but never truly surrendered all my life to Christ until I was 18 years old. Like a lot of us, life is like a roller coaster. There will always be ups and downs. But thru my journey, I know I never have to walk alone. God is so faithful. One of the biggest lessons I have learned is: I don’t have to earn God’s love. He loves me no matter what.


    My biggest blessing is my family. I am so thankful God gave me Jodi and my 4 kids: Mackenzie, Mitchell, Malachi and Myles.


    After 26 years, God has answered my prayers and desire. He brought me to LᴉfePoint Church. I love the people in my church family. To me they are my family. As we strive to honor God and make as many Jesus followers as possible, God’s blessing, His future, and His plan will be revealed. Pray Big, Dream Big, Live Big! Glory be to God – Let’s do Life Together!

    I’m a pretty big fan of Star Wars and dinosaurs. I team up with my wife, Jill, to raise our four kids (Teyla, Levi, Corban, and Quinn) and to look for ways to serve God, our church family, and the community around us. This passion for Jesus started the summer after eighth grade when he gave me life through an experience at Camp Joy El. Before that time, I was a pretty good kid, but I had some internal stuff going on (depression, hatred, loneliness) that was pretty deep for me. But that summer at camp, I felt Jesus ask me if I wanted to choose life with him or not, and by his grace I decided I did. I don’t think I expected a profound change, but in the months that followed I realized I felt like a different person. Depression turned to joy, hatred to love, and loneliness to connected relationships with my spiritual family and most importantly with Jesus. And He has been with me as my true source of Life no matter what happens!


    We just started coming to LᴉfePoint in November 2019. Our first Sunday here, it already felt like home! I love the focus on how Jesus gives us Life, the emphasis on doing that Life together as a family, and the passion for reaching out to serve the community around us! We would love to have you come do Life with us, too!

    In my free time I enjoy hiking, hunting, and video games. I grew up going to church with my grandma, but God never really meant anything to me at the time. I gave up my faith for a girl when I was in middle school which led to me become bitter towards God after we broke up. I was re-introduced to God in junior high when I realized that all of the beliefs I was trusting my life with weren't going to last. I became on fire for God and attended/served in youth up until now and have loved every minute of it! I’ve searched for ways to serve Him ever since which led me here to LᴉfePoint Church.

    It was a Friday night in May 2006 in Pemba, Mozambique when I finally gave my life to Christ. 

    My call to service came when I was in college. After I gave my life to Christ, I still had three years of college left to finish out my degree and I began getting involved in various campus ministries. From leading worship to heading up Bible studies it seemed that almost every night of the week was filled with some sort of ministry event. It was then I realized that my heart was for ministry. After spending a summer in Serbia teaching English, I was completely decided that my call was to the ministry.


    In response to that calling after college I decided to attend seminary at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. At the time I had absolutely no theological training, but I knew I needed to know more to effectively share the Gospel. I completed my degree in college, in marine science, and decided to drastically change the course of my path to line it up with where I felt God was calling me. My life was now motivated by the Great Commission in Matthew 28:19 rather than by the “American Dream.” I looked at how men of the Bible responded to God’s call such as Abraham who gave it all up to go to a foreign country. After looking at their lives I knew I needed to step out on faith.


    In the years that have followed seminary I found myself serving in North Carolina and South Carolina before moving to Pittsburgh. God has used trips like the one to Africa to instill in me a heart for those that society has cast out. My wife and I moved to Pittsburgh to start a church. God broke our hearts for the people of the city. God showed us the power of His faithfulness in our time in Pittsburgh. He has developed in me a love for people I never knew I could have. I’m so thankful that I get the opportunity to lead my family in following God wherever He calls us to go.

    I grew up in a Christian household as the daughter of a pastor. I accepted Jesus at the age of 5. As I grew up, I began to become extremely distant from my family and struggled through my preteen years. I had stopped doing my devotions and was just going through the motions of Christianity. Then one night I was reading about Jesus' death on the cross and I felt the weight and impact that Jesus died for me specifically! That night I surrendered my entire life to Jesus. My relationship with my family was restored and I felt a calling to live for Him. 


    I married my husband, Aaron, and we have four beautiful children! We came to LifePoint in 2019 and as soon as we walked in the doors, I felt God's pull towards being a part of this ministry and church. I love seeing authentic love for Jesus and others and hearts passionate about reaching the lost! It has truly been an honor to serve alongside this church.

    I was saved at the age of 4 after a VBS program at Church. At that age I was afraid of not going to heaven, so during my childhood anytime a Pastor mentioned, “would anyone like to be saved?” I would say the prayer to myself again - you know, just in case. Since then, my faith has grown after going to Lancaster Bible College, getting married to my husband, Wes, helping in youth group before children, having children, and especially since we moved from Maine to Chambersburg to be closer to Wes’s work. A move like that created a new level of faith and dependency on God during this new endeavor.

     

    We visited LifePoint and the friendships we made here served as Christ-like examples of His love. I was softened to listen and apply things more readily that I was learning and that created in me a desire to rededicate my life to Christ. This past year as part of that rededication I was baptized and, with the growth of the Church, am excited to join on staff! I am eager to use my years in Office Administration to assist at church and be a part of the “because Eternity is at stake” team.

     

    My husband Wes, and our four daughters, Kylie, Kaylie, Brooke, and Brianna, are true blessings in my life. We also have two dogs, Kevin and Cooper. I enjoy spending time with friends and family, singing (especially harmony), listening to music, playing sports for fun, and doing other active things. I am excited to “do life together” at LifePoint Church and for all that God has in store!
