CHRIS STANDRIDGE

Through some pretty amazing moves of God and some help from social media like Facebook, God led Chris and his family to Durango.  Chris has been a part of the staff of Grace Church since February 2009.  With a Bachelor's degree in Pastoral & Biblical Studies from Louisiana Baptist University, Chris brings with him a history of youth ministry and a current passion for helping new people get connected in Grace Church.  God called Chris to lead students when Chris was just a teenager and he led youth in both Idaho and Colorado for over ten years.  Now he serves as the Connections Pastor at Grace where he focuses most of his time on first impressions, integrating guests into Grace Church, and overseeing the membership classes.  With three girls, there's a lot of estrogen in his house and Chris doesn't have much time for hobbies that don't include dolls and pink stuff.  But when he does get a chance, Chris loves sports (he's a huge Cleveland sports fan), reading, and crashing his dirt bike, and hunting.
