6th Grade

Junior High Ministry is a natural for Kurtis because he’s basically still a Junior High kid himself. He loves playing with toys (just go in his office and you’ll understand), ranking favorite candies and sodas, along with talking about very important stuff like high scores on the newest apps and video games. Kurtis also loves building relationships with kids and showing them God’s love in a fun, creative, and child-like way.

He graduated from Oklahoma Christian in 2008 with a degree in Youth Ministry. He and his wife Carla got married in 2009.  Carla is also active in the ministry, leading small groups and attending trips. You’ll also notice two little humans, Kinsley and Camden tagging along with them to most youth group events and activities as honorary youth group students.

Bailey graduated from Oklahoma Christian in 2019 with a Bachelor’s in Elementary Education and a minor in History. Bailey was a teacher for four years, which was a rewarding experience. She began her career at Memorial Road in 2016 as a summer youth intern before joining the staff after graduation as a part-time youth minister. Bailey transitioned to full-time ministry in 2023. Working with young people in this capacity has been incredibly fulfilling. She is passionate about guiding them through life’s challenges, fostering their spiritual growth, and creating a supportive community where they feel valued and understood.

Kim joined our staff in 2024, but has been a key volunteer in our ministry since 2008.  Kim loves MRCC and she loves our students.  Prior to working at MRCC, Kim was the Events Director at Oklahoma Christian University.  Kim is married to Randy and they have three grown children.
