Student Ministry Staff Update

We have some sad news to share. Our Student’s Ministry Director, Mackay Lee, is stepping down from his position, and his last Sunday on staff is May 22. 

It's hard to over-estimate the impact and investment Mackay has had on the lives of our students, families, volunteers, and staff in his seven years at Christ Church. While serving here, Student Ministry experienced many transitions, but Mackay's energy, intentionality, and love for our church family have been a constant. It was always his desire that every student felt seen and heard, and we are thankful for Mackay's faithful witness. 

Mackay is entering into a time of discernment as he seeks and prays for the next right thing for him and his family. It is an act of faithfulness to step into the unknown in obedience to God. While we are sad to see him go, we are thankful for Mackay's incredible example of discipleship and trust. Please lift Mackay, Jocelyn, and Charlotte in your prayers as they enter this new season. 


What's Next...

I am looking forward to this upcoming season in Student Ministry - summer programming is set! William and Olivia could not be more excited to minister to your student this summer! We are also excited to announce that Student Ministries will have two interns serving this summer! The Student Ministry team will be announcing the upcoming summer schedule and interns in the next few weeks.

In regards to the Student Ministry Director position, the plan moving forward is to form a search committee to find a replacement for this position. As we move into this next season, please be praying for the following:

  • For the search committee as they seek to discern who God is bringing to serve in this role,

  • For Olivia and William, as they navigate this next season and that God will bring about a transforming work through them into the lives of students,

  • And that God might reveal to you how you can support and champion Student Ministries


If you have any questions or needs during this transition period, don't hesitate to contact William (HS Ministry Director), Olivia (MS Ministry Director), or Brad (Director of Family Ministry).
