In 2020, she took a step of faith and became an intern in youth and worship ministries.

Seeing how God revealed His perfect plan at just the right time is something truly amazing.
Stephanie joined the team as a Ministry Assistant in the fall of 2023, applying 1 Peter 4:10 everyday as she helps our church grow.
