Kristin Kenyon has replaced Jo Seltz as our Youth Director as of the end of May 2009. Her biography follows:

Hi!! I am Kristin Kenyon. I am humbled and greatly motivated to be the youth director!! Here’s a little about me. I grew up with a loving Christian dad and mom along with an older brother, Nick.  After growing up and graduating High School in Humboldt, IA. I went to Northwestern Christian College in Orange City, IA. From the time I was in High School, in college, and up until this very day, I have been involved/coordinated/lead  youth and adult programs in churches, camps, colleges and retreats. My favorite of course was always working with the youth.

I married Mike Kenyon of Mallard, IA after we met at Northwestern .  We moved back to Humboldt where Mike became a police officer and I worked at the local florist. When opportunity came to work with kids,  I went to work for Humboldt Community Schools.  I started working and running my own Silk Flower business, later in years, to stay at home with our kids. Our 3 children are; our oldest girl Bailey who is 7, our son Shawn is 5, and our youngest daughter, Jordan, who is 3. We moved to Fort Dodge in 2007 from a job change of Mike's to the Webster County Sheriff's Dept. and then we moved to Clare this past December.

Mike and I enjoy taking the kids camping, swimming, or anything outdoors . Our time to go spend with our families as much as possible is very important to us as well.  My interest outside of famly and my desire to serve the youth include; decorating, landscaping/flowers, singing, listening to Christian music, theatre, sports/games, art, camp fires, picnics, movies, white chocolate mocha, shopping, an intense game of lazer tag, long walks, a deep bible study/small group, and a really good reeses peanut butter cup blizzard!! 
 
I am excited to serve as the youth director at St. Paul. With God by my side and all the servant hearts, support, and prayers in the congregation, I look forward to the plans that our Lord Jesus has for the youth programs!! The youth are the future, but more importantly,  they are here now!  They hunger for love and faith in Jesus, and I plan to be a leader to help guide them to that ultimate goal!! I look forward to meeting and creating new relationships with all of you here at St. Paul Lutheran Church. 

Serving in Him,
Kristin Kenyon
