Student Pastor

Juwan was touched by the Holy Spirit at a young age when his family was invited to church. Growing up seeking God on his own has inspired him to lead students to Christ and shepherd them in the family of God. He desires to provide the community that he longed for as a teen, guiding students through their questions and pain to their true Source of life and belonging, Jesus.

Juwan has a joy that is contagious but also loves to engage with people on a deeper level by listening to their stories. He loves to be goofy, make people laugh, and spend time with his wife and family. He frequently flips between making nonsensical jokes and having rich theological and philosophical conversations.

The biblical character Juwan relates to is Jeremiah because he was called at a young age to preach the word of God.
