Pastor Ben grew up in Ecuador, South America where his parents were missionaries. Although he struggles with liking winter, he enjoys living in Minnesota. Ben has been in full time ministry for over 20 years in which he has served as a Youth Pastor, Young Adult Pastor, Associate Pastor and now Lead Pastor. He has a passion for discipleship and to see God’s people equipped for ministry. Ben also has a passion to see followers of Jesus live on mission together in order to reach those who don’t know Him.

 

In his free time Ben enjoys coffee (understatement), sports, traveling and reading. Outside of his love for Jesus and the honor of serving Him, Ben’s greatest joy is being a husband to his wife Amy and dad to two sons and one daughter.
