Letter from Pastor Ryan ---
Hello, Peace Potter Church!
My name is Ryan Johnson and my family and I are thrilled to be a candidate for the lead pastor role at Peace! For the last nearly five years, I've served as an executive pastor, but felt a stirring in my soul to step into a senior pastor role as the Lord has continued to show a gifting in leadership and vision within me. I've also served 10+ years in youth ministry in both Wisconsin and at a church in my home state of Washington gaining invaluable experience. My undergraduate degree is in biblical and theological studies from Multnomah Bible School, and I'm currently enrolled as a student to gain a masters in theology with a focus in christian leadership at Midwestern Seminary.
My family is a huge support of my desire to lead the Church. My family is excited about the potential of joining a vibrant church of families, young and old, to further bring the Gospel to our neighbors. My wife Kendra is a teacher in Little Chute where she joyfully loves third grade students and has for the last thirteen years. She desires for children to know the love of God in a public-school setting and is passionate about children's ministry! She leads our son through AWANA programming, as well, and cares deeply about verse memorization. Brooks is our spontaneous seven-year-old who never quite takes the easy route and lives for a side of adventure in all that he does. He is on his way to earning his Black Belt in karate, and enjoys soccer, baseball, swimming, and most recently, taking part in plays. Brooks is best known for being a friend to everyone, and we pray his heart continues to love God and make Him known to all his friends. Mira is our two-year-old who is still figuring out her interests aside from taking care of the many dolls and stuffed animals she loves. Her daycare teachers have commented on her deep affection for others at a young age, and we're so thankful for the unique ways God is wiring her.
Our family is thrilled to have the opportunity to serve in the Potter area and make connections. We thank the Lord for this opportunity and praise Him for how He's working within Peace church and the lives of it's congregants.
