Students and Young Adults Director
Brandon joins the Christ Church family after being in student ministry the last eight years across the country. His enthusiastic approach to student ministry comes from wasting his teenage years on himself rather than Jesus. Brandon believes deeply in the influence of the next generation and can't believe he gets to wake up everyday to serve them. When he's not fussing about his hometown Chicago sports latest blunders, he loves to spend time with his wife Maddie, and three kids: Blair, Brooks, and Blakely!

Kymberly Jaspers
Ministry Coordinator
Kymberly was born in California and in those childhood years moved back and forth between Mesa, Arizona and California numerous times because of her father’s career. Although she was not raised in a home that regularly attended church, Kymberly at an early age was drawn to wanting to know more about Jesus and would ask to go to church with any of her neighbors that would take her. In her passionate pursuit to get to know God more, early in her teen years, God opened her eyes to seeing her need for a Savior and the beauty of having a personal relationship with a never-changing, loving Lord. Kymberly and her three kids began attending Christ Church in 2018, a year after her husband of 23 years unexpectedly went to be with the Lord. All are so thankful to be part of this church family that welcomed them with open arms. She came on staff in early 2021 where she feels blessed beyond measure to serve as the ministry coordinator. Her prayer is that people would know the deep love of Christ and trust wholeheartedly that he is continually doing a good work for them.
