A little more about Arin:
Student ministry is a huge passion of mine. The conversations and goofiness that can happen within junior high and high school students is what its all about! I have been involved in youth ministry since 2016. I graduated from Lincoln Christian University with a degree in Youth and Family Ministry and jumped in head first. I have served in many volunteer roles as a youth pastor and even running a summer camp full time for five years.
Outside of student ministry I love spending quality time with my family. My wife, Carah, and I have 3 beautiful daughters, Jayda, Amia, and Emmy and a furry “fourth child” named Chester. We love going on walks and playing at the park, with the occasional princess tea party thrown in from time to time.
In my alone time, I find my connection to Christ through nature. I’m an avid fisherman and beekeeping is a recent hobby that I have picked up. I tend to go all out with hobbies and over exaggerate often! Typically you’ll find me laughing, telling lame jokes, and being way too excited for things that don’t warrant it!
