Debbie and her husband Jim are natives of Michigan. They lived in South Florida for 7 years before moving to Palmyra Va in 2016. Soon after, they began attending Calvary Chapel Fluvanna. “We enjoy the teaching, fellowship and everything about Calvary Chapel.”

Koky oversees the Women’s Ministries here at CCF. She’s a Virginia native and came to know the Lord in 1977. She has a Bachelor of Arts degree in art education from Longwood University and 20+ years of education experience ranging from homeschooling to public school and private school administration. She has been involved in Women’s Ministry for over 20 years, where her love for God’s Word has opened doors for Bible study, teaching, and encouraging women in their faith.

Sandy has been attending CCF since 2007 with her husband Mike and has been involved in women’s ministry here at the church for many years. She spent most of her adult life working in dentistry - both as a dental assistant and then office manager. She came on staff in October 2019 to work in women’s ministry full-time, and now she directs our events and hospitality ministries.

Gabi moved to Fluvanna County with her husband and two children in 2006 and they have been attending Calvary Chapel Fluvanna since around 2015. She worked in educational settings including Seacamp (FL) and the New England Aquarium (MA), as well as worked as a free-lance classical musician performing in various ensembles in New England and Virginia. She has always enjoyed administrative work, having held various positions in that capacity over the years as well. More recently she worked as the Orchestra and Personnel Manager of the Waynesboro Symphony Orchestra, and she is excited to have been led by God to serve CCF as its Homeschool Co-op Director.

Steve, a graduate of Virginia Tech, was a structural R&D engineer for the Navy for a number of years before trusting Christ at the age of 27. In a matter of months God called Steve to quit his job as an engineer and go into full-time ministry. After graduating from Capital Bible Seminary, God then called Steve to begin the ministry of the Chantilly Bible Church in Northern Virginia where he was the lead pastor for more than 37 years. In 2013, Steve and Shirley, his wife of almost 55 years and the mother of their two grown sons, moved to family land in Palmyra and first attended CCF soon after. These visits were cut short during Shirley’s prolonged terminal illness. Beginning in 2021 God gave Steve the privilege of ministering to his new church family.

Josh started attending Calvary Chapel Fluvanna when he was 14. He got involved with the youth group and has been serving in youth leadership ever since. Josh is currently pursuing a degree in clinical counseling and is on staff as a worship leader here at CCF.

Meghan first attended Calvary Chapel Fluvanna when she was 10 years old and has been here ever since. She accepted the Lord when she was 13 and has been involved in the youth group consistently since then. She is involved in worship ministry as well as serving in the youth group.

“Let nothing move you. Always give yourself fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.” - 1 Corinthians 15:58

Heather has been a part of the CCF family since 2006. She has enjoyed being involved in many aspects of church life, especially women’s Bible studies and fellowship. She is a mom of 4 and has enjoyed the homeschool journey for the last 14 years. Her two greatest joys are “hearing that her children are walking in the truth,” and community with the body of Christ. She is excited to use her passion for the Word of God and fellowship to serve the youth.

Ashlyn has been a member of Calvary Chapel Fluvanna since she was one year old. Her mom Heather Saylor brought her and her family while the church was still at the old high school. Ashlyn was baptized at five years old but was later rebaptized, rededicating her life to Jesus in 2022.

Ashlyn was homeschooled for all her school aged life so the church was one of her only outlets as a kid. As she got into middle school she became very introverted, quiet, and shy and one of her only reasons for going to church was to see the few friends she had. But as she got older, she got hungry for the Word and wanted more than to just go to church for her friends. So, in 2020, she began volunteering for the church's clean team. After that step of faith she has been excitedly growing and serving anywhere she can. She was hired as an AV Ministry intern in 2021 and in 2022 she officially joined the staff at Calvary Chapel Fluvanna.

Now, alongside AV Ministry, she is head of the clean team, helps to lead the girls bible study, and serves anywhere that's needed. God has completely changed Ashlyn's life from a shy, introverted, kid to an outgoing young adult that continues to grow in confidence and in her walk with the Lord every day.  

Philippians 4:6-7

Austen has attended Calvary Chapel Fluvanna ever since kindergarten. In 2009 he was first taught the Word of God under Pastor Tom in our Sunday school children’s ministry. Eventually, he grew to be a part of the high school youth group.

Austen used to be a rather shy kid. He much preferred staying home to play video games while his older brothers went to Bible study on Mondays and Wednesdays. He had little interest in church and even less interest in the Bible, but that all changed in 2017 during a youth retreat where he started taking his relationship with God seriously. After that, Austen loved going to youth group and serving in any way he could. God completely transformed his shy personality and gave him a love for serving that his old self never wanted.

Austen lives in Fluvanna County with his parents John and Donna. His role on staff is overseeing our sound booth team and helping maintain our app and website.
