Bryan Jaster, Minister of Faith Formation
Greetings! My name is Bryan Jaster and I am overjoyed to serve as Minister of Faith Formation.
I have an amazing family that includes Amy (my dear wife), Katelyn (daughter), Jason (son), Jedi (big white fluffy dog) and Ozzie (small black fluffy dog). I’ve lived in Arizona, Illinois, California, Ohio, Virginia and love Colorado!
I love bacon, people's stories, frisbee, mountain biking, oboe, butterflies, science, camp (go to Rainbow Trial and Sky Ranch!), and finding joy in little things.
My mission in life is to live and love like Jesus and journey with others loving God, neighbor and self. Hope to get to know you soon!
Beryl Fanslow Wilson, Music Minister
Beryl is a passionate choral musician dedicated to uplifting individuals and enriching worship through song. Beryl has been called to music her whole life. She picked up a violin at three, joined a choir at six, decided to be a choral conductor in the 5th grade, and eventually earned her Master’s in Music.
Ensemble music is Beryl’s passion and her vocation. She loves the camaraderie, energy, and fellowship. When she’s not singing and directing, she is probably hiking or chasing her 6-year-old son.
