While Ryan will still serve as a teaching pastor, he will now work closely with all aspects of "the next generation." This includes oversight of youth ministry, children's ministry, and the school ministry. He has an amazing team, and has already enjoyed working closely with all of them. One of his top priorities is hiring a High School Youth Director to round out the team.
They've made him feel welcome; the first day, his office was filled with tons of balloons. And then, on Friday morning, we woke up to a yard full of toilet paper and forks. That's right - we had been TP'ed and Forked!
We're really excited about this opportunity. A great foundation has been laid by Michelle and so many others...we're looking forward to continuing to "tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of our Lord!"

Welcome to the world of working with youth! We had the same welcoming here in Medford. They kindly filled our trees with tp and our yard with forks. Congratulations! It's a blast! YM is fun, chaotic and rewarding!
