ALL ABOUT ARI:
As Elementary Director, I help make all elementary services run smoothly. This includes participating in all elementary services, providing materials, scheduling and training volunteers. I joined KAG staff in 2024 and have enjoyed being on our Limitless Kids team. I grew up in church, but I didn’t choose to make Jesus Christ my LORD and Savior until a fall retreat with the campus ministry Chi Alpha in 2022. Since then God has broken the bond of loneliness in my life and drawn me into a closer relationship with Him.
