In one sense, life is all about ministry. Everything I do should be a reflection of my service to God. In a more particular sense, though, each of us are involved in particular ministries. Here are some particular ministries I am involved with and some of their information.
New Horizons Christian Church — Member
Formerly on staff with the church, I continue to attend and serve there regularly. Among other things, I help with our “Design Team” which helps plan our weekly worship gatherings. I also preach occassionally and help with the kids. We are a mobile church, setting up weekly at a local school, so I help with set up and tear down each week as well.

ChrisMarsden.com — Author, Designer, Consultant
The website you are reading now, I consider a ministry. It gives me a place to connect with people I may not ever meet in real life. I also have the opportunity to do design and tech consulting for churches and non-profits through the connections I make here.
Florida Christian Youth Convention
I am on the planning committee for the Florida Christian Youth Convention (FCYC). FCYC is one of the best conventions I have brought kids to as a youth minister. For the past two years, I have served as Chair of the publicity committee. This year I am serving as the President of the convention as we transition to a new location. www.fcyc.org
Lake Aurora Christian Camp
Lake Aurora is one of the best Christian Camps in the country. It is not the biggest out their, but they focus on quality facilities and programs for all ages. I started going to the camp as a camper in 4th grade. Since then I have gone through many of their leadership weeks and have served as a couselor, dishwasher, activities director, and program director. I am currently serving as the secratary of the Board of Trustees. I am also the program director for one of the 7th, 8th, & 9th grade weeks of camp this summer (L789b-July 8th-13th). I know the camp has had an impact on my life and I am glad to be able to support, promote, and serve the camp so they can have an impact on future generations. www.lakeaurora.org
Westside Youth Leaders Fellowship
I have always tried to get together with other churches to further the Kingdom, and now, finally, I am able to do that. The community that I just moved into has an existing group of youth ministers who get together for fellowship with one another. They also plan area wide youth activities and outreach events. While no longer an official you minister, I continue to try to get together with these guys to help further the Kingdom in our little corner of the world.
