🎉 We're grateful for leaders like Brett Quall, our Regional Digital Director for the eastern half of the nation.

When asked what he loves most about serving with Collision Ministries, Brett's answer was simple: people.

Every day, Brett invests in youth pastors across the country—listening to their stories, encouraging them through challenges, and helping them reach students with the hope of Jesus. His heart for relationships and passion for seeing leaders thrive embodies what Collision is all about.

Thank you, Brett, for faithfully serving the Church and helping equip leaders to reach the next generation.

🙌If you're passionate about seeing students encounter Jesus and become disciple-makers, this call is for you!

You'll hear stories of impact, practical ideas for reaching students, and encouragement from others who are helping build student-led movements in their churches and communities. Together, we'll discuss how we can make the most of the summer months and continue equipping students to live on mission.

Collision Team Spotlight: Derek Baerenwald 🌟

We're excited to highlight Derek Baerenwald, our Field Director in Minneapolis, MN!

Derek has a deep passion for seeing students encounter Jesus and become disciple-makers in their schools and communities. His heart is captured beautifully in this encouragement:

“I have so much joy and hope for this generation as students testify to God’s faithfulness, help their friends meet, know, and follow Jesus, and make disciples who make disciples! May we be generations leaning together as we glorify God through Jesus.”

“One generation commends your works to another; they tell of your mighty acts.” — Psalm 145:4

Join us in praying for Derek as he equips leaders, mobilizes students, and helps advance the mission of giving every middle and high school student the opportunity to hear and respond to the Gospel.
