Meet the Children’s Ministry Team!
First up we have Taya, the Children’s ministry Director of the Westhills site!
Hi my name is Taya, I was born in Edmonton and lived in a couple small towns nearby before settling in Calgary, where I’ve been attending RockPointe with my family for 17 years. After high school, I took a gap year to attend Bible school with YWAM in Malaysia, which helped my faith grow deeply personal. After returning I attended the University of Calgary, where I earned a BA in Multidisciplinary Studies with double minors in Psychology and Spanish. During my final semester, I completed a six-month independent exchange in Colombia, where I studied history and taught adult EAL classes at Externado University. It was there that I discovered the job posting for Children’s Ministry Director at RockPointe Westhills, and it has been wonderful! Not only does this role align with my goal of becoming a teacher, but also gives me so much joy to be able to share Jesus with the youngest generation! I also love how wonderfully our team works together and utilizes the unique giftings God has given us to serve the families and children of our church.
Fun Facts:
I love adventure and adrenaline filled sports, and even have been skydiving!
Before moving into this role, I worked as a lifeguard, swim instructor, and first aid instructor
My favorite bible verse:
Philipians 4:6-7
