Austin and Julie have been married for 20 years. They have three boys who serve faithfully alongside them at the Anchor.
Austin is passionate about connecting with new people at the Anchor and helping them grow in their faith and service to Christ and His Church. He loves fishing, tennis and wood working, and a good craft beer.
