I have been serving in IMPACT since 2006. I enjoy spending time with teens and developing relationships with the students, and I am thankful that God allows me to serve in this ministry.






Jonathan Niles

God has placed it on my heart that I work with youth. I am very passionate about the shaping of tomorrow's leaders, and showing them God's love through my actions and more importantly His Word. God clearly states in His Word how He feels about children in numerous places, but Matthew 18:6 is one that sticks in my head and heart. It says, "But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea." Wow. That is passion. I want to bring that passion and love to the youth of this generation so that they may come to know Him. God loves us all, and everyone deserves to know and experience that. Not only is it my mission to tell kids that, but also showing them.
