Hi! My name is Kristen Baltrum, and I am a Deaconess with the Lutheran Deaconess Association in Valparaiso, IN. I was consecrated in 1993, and have been professionally involved with Youth and Family Ministry ever since. I am currently working on my Masters Degree in Youth and Family Ministry through Luther Seminary. I love teenagers and am inspired by the adults who like them as well. I am jazzed by all that the Rocky Mountain Synod has going for Youth and Family Ministry, and am excited to be a part of it.

Paul Judson is Associate Pastor for Youth and Household Ministry at First Lutheran Church in Longmont, Colorado.  After 18 years in pastoral ministry with the last 14 years focused on youth ministry in three calls, Pastor Paul still feels that there is nothing like a Friday night lock-in at the church with at least $100 damage to report to the church council or a service project with youth that includes football players washing pots and pans in a soup kitchen.  (Yes, there are stories behind these comments.)  He feels that there are three essential parts to quality youth ministry.  They are communication, community and service.  His motto... said with a bowl of water in hand... is, "REMEMBER YOUR BAPTISM!"

Sarah Bjornebo, Deaconess

My name is Sarah Bjornebo and I am a Deaconess with the Lutheran Deaconess Association in Valparaiso, IN. I was consecrated in 1996 and worked as a chaplain for Good Shepherd Communities for four years and as a Youth Minister for St. Phillip Lutheran Church for two years. Before consecration I was a Youth Counselor and Adventure Specialist for Lutheran Valley Retreats. Throughout my career I worked with youth in national events, statewide gatherings, and local organizations. Musical leadership and dance is one of the gifts I bring to my ministry. I am excited about empowering congregations to do real, authentic, and high quality Youth and Household Ministry!
