Although Nathan Champneys has spent many years in lay ministry through music, evangelism and youth ministry, he took his first step into full-time ministry when he joined the team here at Munster Church in August of 2011. Nathan loves using his talents on the guitar,  keyboard and in team leadership to serve the body of Christ. His passion is for the edification and unification of the Church as a global body, and worship of our Lord Jesus through music, discipleship and outreach. He also enjoys working with junior high students, whose age allows them to be incredibly impacted by God's grace.

Nathan and his wife Becky, have two children, Kaelen, who is two years old, and Tomina who was just born in July. He enjoys spending time with his family, traveling back to his hometown in Washington, writing and recording music, movies, couponing, and garage sale-ing.

Linda Fox has been serving as the church youth director for the past 9 years.  She previously volunteered as a leader in the youth group and in the Sunday School Program as the music director for 18 years.  A long time member and volunteer, she loves children and teens.  She says she gets such a blessing from hanging out with the teenagers, getting to know them and pointing them to Jesus. 

 When she is not working at the church, she works part-time for the School Town of Munster, driving the school bus.  In her free time she enjoys golf, traveling, gardening, bicycling, swimming, and hiking. She recently competed in her first Triathlon.

Bob Fox serves as the church custodian.  With a smile and a joke, he loves to serve the people of this church. 

He is always going out of his way to make a task easier for someone else.  He does a great job keeping the church looking and running great.  Whether it’s mowing the lawns or shoveling the sidewalks you can often see Bob out in front of the church.  Make sure to honk the horn as you go by.  

 

Bob spends most of his free time golfing but can also been seen riding his bike around Munster.  He has two dogs he also loves to play with and would be happy to tell you all about them.
