Pastor John and Pastor Kristia came on staff at Oak Ridge in 2019.  They have a passion to see people understand the value that is bound up within themselves as one of God's creations, and to lead others to be followers of Jesus who lead others to follow Jesus.  They met while attending Indiana Wesleyan University.  John graduated with a degree in ministry, and Kristia with a degree in business.  Kristia was later called to ministry as well and finished up educational requirements for ordination through a variety of methods.  They have one amazing daughter (not counting the dog).  They love relaxing at the beach, kayaking, trying new foods, and are self-proclaimed coffee-snobs.

Pastor Peggy has been serving as an Assistant Pastor at Oak Ridge since 2025.  She first accepted Jesus Christ into her heart at age 11, and completely surrendered and rededicated her life in 2001. Peggy’s faith continued to grow as she heard the voice of God reminding her often, “Be still and know that I am God.”  Peggy was trained as a Stephen (Care) Minister in 2004 and received a Bachelor’s Degree in Church Leadership and Counseling in 2014.  God has gifted her to walk alongside and help hurting people hold onto the hand of Jesus.  Peggy is grateful for the love, support and encouragement of her high school sweetheart and husband of 34 years, as well as her two grown daughters and precious grandchildren.
