Fearless leaders

Dain has been at
Word of Peace since the fall of 2004. He plays music, does video stuff and gets to hang out with cool people like Derek, Rick,
Mari
and the Youth Team. Movies and photography
are what he loves almost as much as his wife.

We are currently looking for the Middle School Ministry Coordinator position. Check back soon for our new addition!

Rick has been at Word of Peace for who knows how long. His love and passions are youth and education. He has pioneered small groups and inspired Dain to grow his hair long. Aside from having 2 dogs, 3 kids, and one wife Rick likes to ski, jump on the trampoline and replace light switch covers for fun.

Mari Reed~ Youth Administrative Corridinator
Mari has been with the youth department at Word of Peace since 2008. Her help in the office and presence with the youth of the congregation could be done by someone else, but we would most likely rather fly into a black hole than be without her. Mari loves a good laugh, blaring music in the youth office and hanging out with her husband, son and daughter whenever she can.
The Starting Line-up

Melissa is really excited to be on youth team again, and we are greatful to have her here with us again. She brings a lot to the group, like a nice big pontoon boat and mind control over her sister Mari. We couldn't survive with out her. Really. She has an awesome husband and two great kids. Thanks for all your help Mel.
