Caitie and Craig have called Raleigh and Ekklesia home since the fall of 2015. Caitie teaches elementary math and STEAM classes to PreK to 4thgrade students at St. David’s School in Raleigh, and you can find her volunteering in the Ekklesia Kids toddler class. She loves reading, spending time outside, and DIY projects.
Patrick and Niki along with their daughters, Charis (9) and Story (5) started attending Ekklesia in the summer of 2016. Patrick is the Artistic Director of Raleigh Little Theatre and volunteers as a teacher with the youth at church. He loves spending time with his family, all forms of art and sports, and pretending to be a great guitar player.
Lindsay was born and raised in North Carolina and works as Director of Development at North Carolina State University’s College of Engineering. She moved to the Triangle in late 2015 and after a long search for a church home, she found Ekklesia in late 2018. She was immediately drawn to the sense of community she felt, the church’s focus on having a servant’s heart, and how welcoming and accepting it is of all people. Lindsay serves as a member of the Diversity Task Force at Ekklesia. In her downtime, she enjoys domestic and international travel (both solo and with friends), listening to NPR, binge-watching a great show, and the beach.
Wes is a born and bred North Carolinian and has called Ekklesia home for the past five years. When he and his wife Laura moved to Raleigh they searched for a new church for over a year and decided on Ekklesia because it was a place where they felt a strong sense of community and service as well as a place that was welcoming and accepting of all people. Wes works as an Assistant Attorney General at the North Carolina Department of Justice and when he is not working volunteers with Ekklesia’s Connekkt Youth Ministry and fosters dogs.
