FEATURED UPDATES
MEET JOSEPH SAWYER, OUR NEW DIRECTOR OF STUDENT MINISTRY!
Hey Y’all! My name is Joseph, and I am from Holland, MI. I love grilling out, Chicago sports, playing catch with the frisbee, and Billy Joel.
I grew up going to the local church Youth Group and participating in Young Life. I attended a gap year program post-High School, and that was when I knew I wanted to follow Jesus. After College, I hit the workforce doing a wide variety of jobs. Summers were spent working at a camp called HoneyRock, where I could build relationships, spend time with others, and talk about the Gospel. It was during that time that I knew I wanted to live a life of ministry.
This past year, I went back to the gap year I attended at HoneyRock to work with eighteen High School graduates as a Program Coordinator for Wheaton College.
I am super excited to join Glen Ellyn Covenant Church and be a part of this incredible community!
