Kiersten is the Director of Youth and Young Adult Ministries at Wellshire Presbyterian Church (PCUSA), where she focuses on creating safe spaces for students and young adults to explore their faith in Jesus Christ, participate in God's mission for the world, and develop authentic relationships with their peers, leaders, and our Triune God. Kiersten is finishing up her seminary degree and is working towards ordination with the PCUSA. Kiersten and her husband, Josh, live in Southwest Denver. They enjoy being outdoors, exploring the city, and spending time with their friends. They are also the co-captains of a young adult kickball team in Denver, which has been a highlight of their lives in Denver for the past few years. Whether skiing, hiking, biking, or trying new happy hour spots, Kiersten and Josh love experiencing all that Colorado has to offer.

Carolyn grew up in Palisade, CO and is a 4th generation member of the United Methodist Church. She attended the University of Colorado as a voice performance major. After graduating, she ventured to NYC where she earned her MSc in education and taught both high school and middle school.

Carolyn continued to explore the world and her place in it through her work designing and launching university programs for students at the margins around the globe. From refugee camps to urban centers, Carolyn deepened her passion for community development through co-creation and collaborative design. Her latest project, F Cafe is a tangible manifestation of the world she is for (the f in F Cafe!). She envisions a world where solutions hold space for complexity at the nexus of social and environmental justice.

Carolyn is a singer, writer, chef, storyteller, speaker, facilitator, coach, yogi and learner of all things. Most recently she was published alongside scholars, artists and researchers from across Africa in Langaa Publishing’s, Decolonize, Humxnize.

She is thrilled to be leading The Foundation and to develop projects that regenerate all of us as we put our faith in action.
