Jane is somewhat new to the youth ministry team this year but she has thrown herself into it and is a pro at it now. Jane loves the middle school retreats and she is sure to be at every single one from now until the end of time. Jane is also a very loyal MYF counsoler...she's actually a much happier person than this picture shows. Hopefully we'll have a new picture of her soon.

3 Songs On Your Most Recent Ipod Playlist or CD currently in your CD player: I just like listening to Kevin and Taylor on 104.7 on the drive to and from work - - or any other time in the car. My ipod is rather empty except for the occasional design document I cart from one CPU to another. I guess I should start using it for what it was designed for, huh?

Jay is one crazy guy. He is at church every Sunday night for MYF. Some of the youth claim that "he is the funniest person I've ever met" while others think he's "just plain weird". All in all Jay is a pretty cool guy and his wife Jessica has been known to tag along with us on a trip before.

Joe plays the bass. Joe wears sunglasses. He is also the man that goes on just about every adventurous youth trip we have. Joe is cool. Joe is nice. Joe is Joe. We like Joe.

Tayler is an Intern who works with our Middle School youth. He loves to Shower and has been know to shower up to six time a day on retreats of course since he is a middle school counselor someone has to make up for the 6th grade boys who can go weeks without a shower. If your good he might just buy you a candy bar. We love Moosa and his
Hair.

Steve is our resident chef. He keeps us full and happy on the ski trip and helps us with our Fall BBQ. He also gives wonderful support to the youth group all year round. We can't really explain why he is looking like Ben Franklin in this picture on the left but we found it quite puzzling that every picture we have of him involves him wearing some bizzare wig. The picture on the right is from a game called "the mullet game" where you make a mullet from a swim cap and some yarn...so there he is again in a bizarre wig thing. Luckily he wears a hair net when he cooks.
