Johnna Thiessen

Johnna is committed to keeping the 11th commandment: “Thou shalt not bore AC3ers and their friends with the good news of the Gospel.” Her creativity and programming passion drive messages home through skits, video, music, and other creative elements.
Twila Crain
Seeds of Grace & Kreek Kids Director
Twila has earned the title ‘Up-Cycle Queen’ for breathing new life into props and items pronounced dead around AC3. But up-cycling people, spiritually and physically, is her true passion. From our littlest seekers in Kreek Kids to those wanting a hand up in our community, she sees and encourages who they can become in Christ.
Braeden Crain
Youth Director
Braeden’s leadership, creativity, passion for excellence, and ability to relate with students makes her a perfect AC3 Youth Director.
Trina Perry
Saturday Evening Kreek Kids Director
Trina (aka Titanium Teacher in Kreek Kids) has the secret super power to flex time. How else could she pack 30 hours of activities into a 24 hour day? Her get-‘r-done approach to life, work, and ministry serves her well as our Saturday night Kreek Kids Director and for the many ministry projects that she leads around AC3.
Chandra White
Prepare the Way Preschool Director
Chandra is affectionately known as AC3’s Preschool Whisperer. We’re not quite sure how she does it but her soft and gentle way of teaching young students builds them up and brings out the best in each and every child in her classroom. If you’re looking for a Marysville preschool, be sure to check out Prepare The Way.
