Why are you involved in youth ministry?
I have always loved working with students whether that be in a ministry or professional capacity. I’ve worked with students through almost every church I’ve attended over my lifetime so it was a natural way for me to serve at Northstar. It’s a very fulfilling way for me to help other people using my past experiences. Plus, I learn so much from the students in our youth group that it’s a very mutually beneficial relationship.

How were you impacted as a young person for Jesus?
I had a lot of great influences in my life growing up that taught me how to live for the kingdom. Not only my parents and youth leaders, but a wonderful group a friends who challenged me.

What has impacted you during your time serving?
The most amazing thing to see is our students pouring into one another. I’ve never been a part of a more supportive youth group that truly values their relationships and works hard to maintain and nourish them. It’s quite a wonderful example of how Christians should be living their lives.
