We are excited to announce that Pastor Chris Dahl has joined the ARC. We asked Chris to share with us a little bit about himself and his family for this edition of the ARC E-Newsletter. Chris writes:

“I'm a husband to my wonderful wife, Kelly; father to Joshua (3) and Isaac (16 months); and Discipleship Pastor at Lutheran Church of the Cross in Altoona since March of 2013. Being in youth ministry and camping ministry for many years leading up to this call, it's been so evident that God continues to shape and mold me into a leader that comes alongside people in their everyday lives to see themselves as everyday followers and missionaries for the Gospel. I work with our children, youth, and care ministry teams to live out being a Jesus centered community that is on mission daily. I truly believe that God calls wonderfully ordinary people to do extraordinary things for the Kingdom of God through the empowering of His Holy Spirit. Through being a student at The Master's Institute over the past several years, I've come to know the ARC through the incredible people who are part of it. I feel incredibly blessed to be in a network of believers that is led by the Spirit, focused on prayer, fixed on Jesus, has great leadership, and desires for people to know and experience the incredible love of Christ. I'm excited to follow Jesus together with others in the ARC!”

Welcome aboard the ARC, Chris!
