Meet Jessi Furlo!
BIO: Jessi and her husband, James, have been a part of this church family since about 2008 and have been married just as long! They are Colorado/California transplants but have been in the PNW for over 20 years and officially call themselves Oregonians…although they still may never get used to the rain. Jessi has a passion for teaching kids and has over a decade of experience working with babies all the way through elementary school ages. She is most excited about teaching kids to love Jesus and helping parents to be equipped to raise their kids to have discernment for truth! The Furlos stay busy with their daughter, Elinor, and son, Samson…playing soccer, reading, trying new hairstyles, and doing family movie marathons.
As a kids intern, you will get to work closely with Jessi. From weekly meetings and trainings to develop and equip you as a leader, to wrangling kids on a Sunday morning, you’ll get to see first-hand what it looks like to lead a Children’s Ministry with Jessi!
