Story in Brief

Pastoral Role at Evergreen Bible Church

I (Ryan) split my time between two primary roles. The first is as an Associate Pastor at Evergreen Bible Church. I will spend 75% of my time serving in this role. I anticipate being in Vancouver, where our home is located, from mid-August thru mid-June. Essentially, I will be in Vancouver during the school year. I will work full-time at Evergreen, while also carrying some responsibilities for Rock Nest that I can accomplish from a distance.

Missionary Role at Rock Nest Ranch

The remaining 25% (or so) of my time will be spent serving with Rock Nest Ranch. As a family we all will be on-site at Rock Nest in the summer, once school is out. We will help with leadership and other needs at the camp, though the exact roles we will fill are still getting worked out.
