Pastor Justin and his wife Erin moved to Amery in the summer of 2013. They met while attending Northwestern University of St. Paul, where Justin graduated with degrees in Pastoral Studies and Bible. In 2014 he graduated from Bethel Seminary with a Master of Divinity emphasizing in ministry leadership.

His passion is twofold: to preach the Word of God and to reach out to the community with the love of Jesus. Salvation is through Jesus alone and this message is what our world is in dire need of.

Justin and Erin have five children that live at home with them. As a family, they are seeking to know Jesus and make him known.

Their family verse is Philippians 1:9-11:
This is my prayer for you: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ- to the glory and praise of God.
