Rob was born and raised in Utah. He loves the outdoors, camping, hiking, and just being active. He also enjoys football, baseball, and basketball and is an avid Steelers fan. After seeing the Christmas movie, Die Hard at age 8, he has had a desire to work in Law Enforcement ever since. Rob's career has spanned over 20 years and has included roles in SWAT, Robbery, Homicide, Gangs, FBI Task Force and as Sergeant Detective with the Special Victims Unit. Rob is blessed with an amazing wife, Elayne who is his absolute best friend, and an even bigger Steelers fan. He is also blessed with 2 wonderful children: Asher (age 12) and Grace (age 9) and is hoping for more kids in the future. In 2008, after living a life void of any type of faith, he stepped into a non-denominational church for the first time and 4 months later, gave his life to Christ. In 2019, Rob and Elayne walked into the Bridge Community and immediately knew this was where God wanted them to be. They have been worshiping and serving here ever since. Rob loves Jesus. As he has lived a life without God, Rob understands the utter loneliness this brings and has a strong desire to lead others to Him and to see them grow in their faith. If you would like to know more about getting connected or have any questions about the amazing ways to grow here at The Bridge Community, or if you just need some encouragement, you can reach Rob here. 

Tom grew up in Northern Utah along the Wasatch Front (Layton). For as long as he can remember he has had a passion for seeing old things be made new (especially homes), and sees his life in a similar light in the hands of the Lord. He is a self taught musician who not only enjoys learning new instruments, but also putting them into practice on Sunday mornings. Additionally, he is passionate about passing along the things he has learned to others. Not long after surrendering his life to Jesus late in 2005, and watching the Lord save his amazing wife Jaime soon after, the Lord called Tom to serve in ministry. After completing a two-year internship, he was ordained as a pastor in 2011. Over the course of his ministry he has been blessed to serve in pastoral and worship leading roles, in church administration and finance, as a chaplain, as well as in the areas of audio/visual and technology. Tom and Jaime have been married since June of 2000 and have two awesome adult children, Braylee and Rylan. Tom earned a Master of Arts in Christian Ministry from Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary in 2022 and is passionate about continued education, growth, and development for himself and for those he serves in the church. If you have questions about worship ministry or are in need of any assistance, please feel free to reach out to Tom here.

Kevin grew up in the Central Valley of California, and came to faith in Christ during high school.  He started working for the Fresno Police Department in 2000, and during the police academy he met the second (only to Jesus) greatest love of his life, Brooke.  He and Brooke were married in 2003.  They have 2 amazingly awesome daughters, Lilly and Felicity, both of whom are adults now.  Kevin was injured in a collision at FPD, resulting in his medical retirement in 2009.  During this time, Kevin and Brooke started working with Pastor Loren in college ministry at New Covenant Community Church, and since that time they’ve been coming out to Utah annually to help The Bridge Community during VBS week.  After his retirement, Kevin went back to school at Liberty University and finished his BA in Biblical Studies.  He was re-hired by the police department as a background investigator, and then later worked as a police chaplain.  During this time, Kevin went to seminary at Liberty University and obtained his Master of Divinity in 2017.  Kevin spent 8 years as a police chaplain, ultimately becoming the Senior Chaplain of the Fresno Police Department.  In 2019, Kevin and Brooke moved to Madera County and, by God’s leading, planted Redemption Hill Community Church.  RHCC was an amazing experience for the family, but God had planted seeds for Utah that were coming to fruition.  God moved Kevin and Brooke out to Utah in the spring of 2024 to take part in the ministry that’s happening at The Bridge Community.  If you have any ministry or counseling needs or have any questions about faith in Jesus, you can reach out to Kevin here.

Rylan grew up in Sunset, Utah before moving to Layton, Utah where he has been living for the past 14 years. In high school, he was a very competitive debater and learned how to win any and every argument. As long as he can remember, Rylan has had a deep passion for education and pouring wisdom into teenagers. After graduating from Northridge High School in 2022, he chose to attend the University of Utah where he is currently studying math education in hopes to teach high school math/physics. After accepting Jesus as his savior in high school, Rylan understood the importance of faith for teenagers and has a mission to serve the youth. Throughout his time at the Bridge Community, Rylan has served in both worship and children’s ministry, and is now working closely with youth and mentoring them in their spiritual growth. His number one mission is to help students and families recognize their need for Jesus and provide practical skills on how to follow him. If you have questions about youth ministry or if you need immediate assistance, you can reach Rylan here.
