We are blessed to have someone like Jared lead us in music to worship Jesus - his heart for Jesus is evident in how he leads and disciples others to praise Jesus. Jared has been leading music ministry for 13+ years - He is passionate about welcoming God’s presence, giving Jesus meaningful praise, and helping the rest of the Church do the same. Jared enjoys making memories with his wife Nicole and three sons, quality time with his extended family, and staying active with recreational sports. 

Grace will be coming along our children’s ministry in many ways but primarily helping lead the charge in giving our children Gospel-centered lessons for Sunday mornings.
Grace is a wife, mom, and Air Force medical technician. She and her husband Gabe have been married for five years and are raising two young children. Before joining the military, Grace had the opportunity to serve as a missionary in China—an experience that continues to shape her commitment to helping others. In Grace's free time she enjoys hiking and art projects with her children.

Sarah the Home Church Office Administrator, keeps all of us organized (because the Lord knew we’d need it!) We are incredibly blessed to have Sarah as a part of the team and be one of the first points of contact for the church.
Sarah grew up in the Puyallup area before pursuing her bachelor’s degree in Denver. She later met her husband, Ethan, in the Wyoming wilderness. Together, they spent seven years serving as missionaries in Mexico, where they focused on planting house churches and running a paddleboard-based discipleship ministry.
