Courtney loves to spend time outside, soaking in the fresh air of the Pacific Northwest by hiking or camping or just relaxing in a hammock.  She and her husband Carl are lovers of board games and video games where they get to socialize and spend time with family or friends.  They got married in 2017 after 4 years of long distance and now have a two-year-old daughter, Danielle, whose energy level is a challenge to keep up with!  Courtney’s been involved in ministry as a youth leader for most of her life and is passionate about sharing Jesus with children and working with leaders to empower kids to take control of their own faith.

Noah grew up in the small town of Ellensburg, Washington, and married Ashley in September 2019. Being a people-person, Noah enjoys time with people, especially if it involves video games, sports, board games and/or food. If he had to choose, he would listen to instrumental music over music with lyrics; everything from orchestral, EDM, ambient, and everything in between. While he has served on the worship team and in youth ministry, Noah has primarily worked in Children's Ministry, working most closely with Elementary students. He longs to see Christ become a greater part in the lives of those in the church and the community at large.
