(Click here to view the Student Ministry Page)
Gavin was born and raised in The Woodlands, Texas and graduated from Baylor University in Waco, TX with a degree in Education and a Focus on the Family Institute certificate from Colorado Christian University. After his undergraduate work, Gavin went to Duke University where he received a Masters of Divinity and organized Duke Basketball campouts! As a fifth generation Texan, he is glad to be back in Texas and be near his farmhouse and family once again! Due to his love and care for students, Gavin brings the necessary energy and excitement (along with some great skit clothes) to our youth program. He has a passion for creating an authentic and free Christian community for all God’s people so that everyone can experience God’s love, laughter, and recreation during life’s journey. Gavin loves the outdoors, traveling, reading good books, and most importantly college basketball! Before coming to Trinity, Gavin has been a youth minister at Univeristy UMC, a leader for Waco Young Life, and as a Programs Director and counselor for Kanakuk Summer Kamps. But, ask Gavin to tell you the time he spent a summer living in Guatemala where he had to give shots to bulls and slaughter pigs. He will never tell you…but that is the true training he needed to work with Junior High and High School students!
