Tyler Lewis
Senior Minister
Tyler became a minister because he loves to talk about Jesus, and he wants everybody to know and love the God who knows and loves them. He and his family--wife, Beth; Elizabeth (7); and Dmitri (4)--are so excited to be in Portland where they get to experience and participate in what God is doing in this area. They love spending time with other people, and you can find them at home playing games with each other or preparing to go to the beach. Tyler is greatly looking forward to walking together with the North Bay congregation in the midst of preparing sermons and classes, visiting with members, and hanging out for conversations or games. Give him a call, send a text, or drop by the office to find out more about the guy who is trying to be like Jesus in the midst of a messy world.
