Kelly asked Jesus into his heart in December 1966 and was baptized the following Easter along with his future wife, Gail. They met as children and celebrate their 50^th anniversary in 2024. They have now attended Creekside for nearly 30 years. Initially involved in the Caregiving Ministry, Kelly then became active in the Worship Arts ministry, specifically in choir and drama. He currently leads the Classic Service a couple times a month and leads the Baptism class held prior to all scheduled baptisms. Kelly is passionate about leading others into a deep conversational relationship with the One who knows us completely, and loves us forever. One of Kelly’s favorite verses is:

· John 10:10 – I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
