Operations Pastor

I have a passion for how God has wired and gifted people and how each person fits into a group of people we call the church family. My goal is to encourage people to live fully in the place they are at and put themselves in a position to be touched by God. That is when live gets exciting.

Facilities Manager devon.eklund@wayzatafree.org

I have always enjoyed fixing things and spent most of my early career as a contractor. I have applied those skills to managing the facility at Wayzata Free and there is always a new challenge. The building is a space for people to worship and I am passionate about working with a team to make the building a place that is clean, safe and allows people to worship and meet together.

Pastor of Prayer and Worship Programming

I desire to lead our church family to center on Jesus through intimacy in prayer and lavish worship. Jesus calls us to unity in our diversity and I love to see the church come together as one body. Young, old and everything in between, we all have something to bring.

“How can I help?” Over the years God has impressed on my heart how impactful and encouraging those four words can be and as part of the administrative staff, I enjoy having the opportunity to ask this question often. It’s a joy to learn from and come alongside members of our community, church family and staff as we collectively seek to love and serve God and others in a variety of ways.

experience healing and abundant life in their individual lives and interpersonal relationships.
