Micah
Mac

Micah Mac

Micah met Steph at North Central University in downtown Minneapolis. Micah shares about how he would walk into chapel and hear the voice of an angel singing as Steph would lead Chapel worship and travel on the Schools worship team across the country. It wasn’t long after graduating North Central that they would get married and both be on staff at Cedar Valley Church in Bloomington, MN. Micah was a youth pastor and Steph was a worship pastor. After several years working in the local church they sensed God asking them to take a step of faith and go on the road full time. For the last three years they have been ministering to thousands as God has opened every door of opportunity. They currently are “staff evangelists” and contracted worship leaders at Zoe Church in Burnsville, MN. For fun you can find them hanging with their kids at a water park, local gym, or local restaurant as they love GOOD FOOD! They are so honored that you would take the time to get to know a little bit more about them.

Seranna Rowse

Seranna Rowse

My name is Seranna Rowse! I was born and raised in Jasper National Park, and have lived here in Calgary for the last 7 years. I met Jesus for the first time as a teenager, but really started walking with him when I was 18 in Los Angeles, where I spent just under 3 years at the LA Dream Centre in their leadership school. This is where I fell in love with outreach ministry, and the place where my passion to see young people love and pursue Jesus wholeheartedly began.

I have been working in Youth Ministry for just over three years now, and my husband and I currently oversee our local Church Youth ministry here in Calgary at C3 Church. One of the greatest honours of my life has been getting to work in next-gen ministry, and I am constantly in awe and humbled by the teenagers in our Youth group who live out their faith boldly and courageously. I am especially excited to see more young women rise up and step into their callings as leaders in every industry and to use their gifts to impact the kingdom.
