She longs to see others experience a living, real, growing relationship with God and to engage in being on mission with Him. She wants children to experience listening to God and to follow Him in the Adventure! Jeff and Star have 3 adult children and 2 children in secondary school.

Office Administrator
Kylie Zimmerman
Kylie found and committed to following God when she was 18 years old (2014). She had been struggling to find purpose and meaning in life until a longtime friend invited her to a praise and worship event, where she was met with the move of the Holy Spirit, saving Kylie from her unhealthy ways. After experiencing God’s grace first hand, she needed to know more about the loving Father who created her. She sought out guidance from a Christian family who let her live in their home while recovering from a treacherous backstory. She helped out with a youth group, and worked at a Christian academy where she cared for young children and toddlers. Kylie hopes to share her life-story with other young women going through similar situations to bring comfort and guidance to them as God did for her. Kylie enjoys days spent with her husband, Jonny and their cuddly fur-babies.
