Family Members: Connor & Leah
Children: Sage (Age: 1 1/2) 

How long have you attended FBC? Since FBC hired me and we moved back in February!

Which service do you attend? Both

Married: In April will be 7 years

Occupations: Leah works remotely doing marketing and communications for a nonprofit called I Pour Life. Connor gets to be the Youth Pastor at a cool church you may have heard of called FBC Holton!

Are you from Holton? If not, where are you from? Connor grew up just about a block away from FBC, graduating from Holton. Leah grew up in the Soldier/ Circleville area graduating from Jackson Heights. But we’ve lived all over, Leah in Manhattan, Connor in NW Arkansas, and together in Colorado Springs and Springfield, Missouri.

What is your family’s favorite activity? We like taking road trips, listening to various podcasts, taking walks around town especially to Linscott Park, cheering on the students at their games and activities, and generally looking for mischief to get into!

What is your family’s favorite season? We’re a fall family for sure! Every season has its strengths, but there’s no beating fall’s weather, food, and activities!

What is your family’s favorite tradition? One of our favorite traditions is driving around checking out Christmas light displays. In the summer we love going on river float trips. Christmas Eve and Good Friday worship services are also some of our favorite traditions!
