DANA WHITNEY

Office Manager

Dana and her husband moved to Bigfork from Missoula in 2000. They have two children, Mark and Jennifer.

She spent about a decade working in a fast paced office environment before leaving work to stay home with her children. Now that they are both in school, working at the church is a great fit. It’s close to home, the hours allow her to be home when her kids are home, and continue her volunteer activities.

CHURCH MEMBERS

Represent Jesus Christ

We join together to worship God in Spirit and in Truth. We celebrate the Bible, the music, the seasons of life together. We serve by hosting many groups, including non-church groups who serve our community in profound and really important ways. We love our guests and try our best to make you feel really welcome. Join us this Sunday and then stay to sample our fellowship. Hope to see you soon!

COMMITTEE CHAIRS

Support

When our church runs smoothly, it’s because of our committee chairs. Handling a huge number of responsibilities and tasks, our committee chairs join together to create a great team.
