My name is Mike Elsner and I have been the Athletics Chaplain for Warner Pacific College. The ministry here on campus has included building relationships with student athletes, encouraging them as they grow as athletes and students, challenging them to take steps to further that growth, and providing opportunities for them to respond to those challenges. We will be moving on to another sports ministry soon but have enjoyed the experience and opportunity that this campus provided us with over the last three years!
My wife, Staci, and I got married in August 2008, and our son, Zachary Mitchell, joined the family in May 2010, our younger son Luke was born June 5th of 2012! You can follow our journey in ministry at our new blog space: www.compete4more.wordpress.com ![family3[1]](http://knights4christ.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/family31.jpg)
Hey Mike
Gary Strudler from Rolling HIlls here. Josh Rhoden had us on the same email and I was curious what Knights for Christ was – I did not realize you were the athletic chaplain at Warner – that is great! Lots of great opportunities to minister to college students at such a vulnerable time in their lives. Blessings to you!
