Hey! My name is Jared. I have served as the Director of Youth Ministries at Deep Creek since January of 2012.  I have a heart for mentoring young people, pointing them toward our Savior, Jesus Christ.  I love to see children and youth grow in their faith in Jesus.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts from Catawba College and most recently I earned a Master of Arts in Ministry from Carolina Graduate School of Divinity.  Additionally, I have a full time job in administration at the law firm of Bell, Davis & Pitt.

Currently, my favorite books of the Bible are Genesis and Isaiah.

My wife, Gwyn, and I, along with our daughter Elsie, enjoy spending time outdoors, kayaking, biking, hiking, traveling and goofing off with our golden retriever, Reese.
