Charlie enjoys many foods and will happily eat the ham salad Darrick doesn't enjoy, but prefers "real" ham!
He loves Jesus, the amazing girls he calls family (including Lucy the dog), all things Christmas & cinnamon coffee creamer. His office is like an abandoned Toys R Us and one of his favorite spaces to occupy on this planet is Wonder Valley Camp. He could do without turtleneck sweaters, ham salad & Styrofoam packing & his heart is seeing teens discover, encounter and pursue Jesus. Darrick has been leading teens at HCC 21 years & counting.

Jamie's favorite Bible verse is 1 Corinthians 13:13.
