Student Small Groups
Teaching our teens to know & follow Jesus together
Molly Hubred
High School Girls
I teach middle school math and science and will be helping lead the high school girls group. Youth group was a huge part of my walk with Christ growing up, and I love being able to come alongside the girls as they grow closer to the Lord. My favorite part about student ministries is hearing the questions the students have and getting to play games at the events and retreat.
Julie Ciborosky
High School Girls
I’m currently a 4k teacher in the Elmbrook school district. Growing up I loved being apart of my youth group and it had a big impact on my faith. Then during college I co founded and led a Bible study called 3:30 (after John 3:30) which is when I discovered my love for mentoring and teaching the gospel. My favorite part about working with high school students is walking alongside them as they grow in their love and knowledge of the Lord.
DJ Kovac
Middle School Girls
Right now I’m staying at home with my son, but I’ll be starting a new job as a Nurse Midwife soon. I get the chance to lead the middle school girls small group and absolutely LOVE it!!! My favorite part is getting to see their view of God and themselves change the more they get to know His word.
Merin Minch
Middle School Girls
During the week, I work as a pharmacist, and I’m also a mom to two wonderful little boys. I’m looking forward to helping lead the middle school girls small group on Sundays! One of my favorite parts of student ministry is creating a safe space where girls are encouraged to know that God isn’t afraid of their questions, their personality, or their story. It’s a privilege to watch Him use those very things to draw them into a deeper relationship with Him.
Abby Schroeder
Middle School Girls
I’m a stay-at-home mom to my sweet one-year-old, Hansen. Before stepping into motherhood, I taught 7th grade math and served as a social media manager at a Christian college and seminary. Middle school is such a special season—it’s when I first started asking big questions, began to truly understand the gospel, and built my own relationship with God. I can’t wait to open God’s Word together, pray for one another, and enjoy the richness of fellowship as we walk together this year!
Josh Roetz
High School Boys
I majored in electrical engineering and work for an automation company as a design engineer. I love to hike & camp (especially in the mountains), lift weights, read and play my cello! I lead our high-school boys student small group! I have been involved in youth ministry from VBS to youth group for around 10 years. My favorite part of working with the high-school age group is seeing the students discover that there is more to faith than having the right answer. Finding their faith is in the person of Jesus. This relationship is experiential and will change their life.
Kenrick Manswell
High School Boys
I love the Lord and have a desire to follow Him wherever and to whomever He leads me, much like Daniel. As a teenager, I had leaders that poured into my life and made a lasting impact on me for the kingdom of heaven. I am honored to be in a position where I can attempt to do the same for those coming behind me. My prayer is that we all become less so Jesus can become more. I love everything outdoors and am always looking for an excuse to go for a run, bike ride, or play some pickup soccer/basketball.

Jon Keller
Middle School Boys
Throughout the week, I'm a mechanical engineer but on the weekends I lead our middle school boys student small group! I've been serving in student ministries through Christian camp counselling and church small group leadership ever since I graduated high school. My favorite part of student ministries is watching the Lord connect dots between the Scripture and student's everyday lives.
