Ryan is a husband and father of three girls who grew up locally and, by his own admission, made some bad life choices as a young person. Having been transformed by the love and forgiveness of Christ, Ryan is passionate about giving back to the community and leading young people towards wholeness. Having launched  successful Drop- in and Project Serve programs in Novar, Ryan has made great strides in connecting with youth in the North. Ryan has worked hard to build an exciting carpentry program where youth will be mentored in Christlikeness and taught valuable carpentry skills -- all designed to make a positive impact on youth and the world around them.
