Tracey Kelly

STUDENTS SMALL GROUP COORDINATOR

WHAT IS YOUR ROLE AT HOPE?

I have the privilege of recruiting, encouraging, and equipping our volunteers in Hope Students. My job is to care for, support, and coordinate our small group leaders as they walk alongside and disciple middle and high schoolers in their small groups. I get to facilitate and witness beautiful life transformation through the power of Christ and the power of life on life ministry. I also get to work with an incredible team who is so passionate about students knowing Jesus and who love Jesus so much too. I love it!
