Pastor Micah
I was born and raised in the NW, the majority of the time in Lake Stevens, WA. I grew up in Calvary Chapel the youngest of six kids to my parents, who took us to be missionaries, church planters and pastor’s kids before the Lord finally put us in Lake Stevens. I was blessed to have been raised to know Jesus, an upbringing that wasn't full of wealth and privilege, but certainly of love and truth. From a young age, the Lord had placed it in my heart to be in the ministry and to teach Gods' word.
My wife Sarah-Jane was born and raised in Durban, South Africa before the Lord migrated her and her family to England at the age of 16. She is the younger of the two children her parents have and her parents raised her to love the Lord and to always seek Him. Her family certainly went through moments that would force them to trust the Lord as they stood up for righteousness and honesty, but the Lord's faithfulness was never to be waivered.
Our lives came together in an unconventional manner as we met on-line, but the Lord was clearly directing our paths and formed a love story of trust, sacrifice and faith. We have been married since October 23, 2010, and currently have been blessed with 3 precious boys and a little girl.
As a young man, the Lord used many opportunities to shape me. My most memorable was the time I spent in Mississippi after Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast of Mississippi and Louisiana. There the Lord gave me a crash course in the ministry and formed in my heart the desire to serve people. Finally, after moving back to the NW and getting married, the Lord took me to Calvary Everett where I would eventually be ordained as a pastor and serve there as an assistant pastor for 2 years. During that time we had entertained the thought of church planting and were seeking the Lord on where He would send us. Finally, in the summer of 2016, the Lord opened up doors and put on our hearts to move to Calvary Chapel Fellowship Wenatchee to serve here.
