Our Southside Campus Team
Tim and Pam Calhoun came to Fairbanks, Alaska in August of 2009 to serve at Fairbanks Native Chapel. They have two daughters, Laura and Lizzie. Blaine, Lizzie’s husband, and Anthony, their 1st grandchild have joined the team in recent years. Blaine grew up in the nearby town of North Pole, and has been a part of the church fellowship for most of his life and his parents, Bob and Elayne Hartman, have been a valued part of the ministry team for many years. Blaine serves as an assistant to Pastor Tim; ministering as a pastor of visitation, youth pastor, and sharing messages during scheduled services. Liz is our worship director; serving with a great team of musicians and vocalists to provide wonderful and encouraging music for all or our events.
We have recently welcomed Joshua Hadik from Hawaii to our team as pastor of children’s ministries. He has a great connection with our youngest friends that is so important as we reach into our community and minister to this exciting age group. Several class teachers work with him to provide wonderful ministry and events for our children.
Andrea and Michelle Helfrick, our sister team from PA, serve in many areas as well. From teaching school, to operating vans for the outreach routes, they are involved in service and leadership in many areas of the ministry.
Southside is blessed with many ministry-minded servant leaders with most taking an active part; serving alongside the listed team in music, children’s work, snack and meal preparation, prayer support and many other vital areas of need.
We are truly blessed to have Shelter Bible Church serving with us in hands-on service to our community. Pastor Ernie Crabb and his team have faithfully ministered alongside us without claim, credit, or expectation.
We are grateful for all who serve on-site; for those who encourage and support from a distance, and for the extended team who prays from near and far that God would be glorified and His work continued here at the Southside Campus.
