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 is also excited by the prospect of launching new and upcoming programs in Burk’s Falls and South River,  and is currently hard at work building the foundation to launch an exciting new 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.
