Pastor Ken Maxey - Middle School Youth Pastor
-
has been on staff since January, 2000. Ken and his wife,
Sara, have
four sons: Nelson, Evan, Isaiah, and Jude. When they
are not chasing down one of the boys, or making sure
they're not gouging an eye out, they are ministering to
the 5th - 8th graders. This includes having a
service upstairs during regular church on Sundays and
also on Wednesday nights. Ken also supervises the
church's website, so if you have any complaints or
complements look him up, he'll probably be in his office
huddled up in a fetal position. |
