Frank has been attending CMBC since 2000 and is involved with directing the youth worship music on Wednesday nights. He also volunteers in the cafe and as a substitute usher. While volunteering he especially enjoys getting to meet and talk to different groups of people. Frank has been married to Shannon since 2000 and they have two children, Nathan and Madeline. Growing up he always wanted to be an airplane pilot, but currently works as a plant manager at BenCo Technology. Some of his favorite things include steak, reading, and archery. He enjoys archery so much he’s an instructor and certified judge for archery competitions! 

Shannon Heverin started attending Calvary Monument in 1985 and currently helps with the youth worship music on Wednesday nights. She has also been involved with the choir, Awana, VBS, and the cafe at CMBC. She has a Bachelor’s degree in Therapeutic Recreation and dreams of being a director at a senior center. Shannon has been married to Frank since 2000 and has two school-age children, Nathan and Madeline. When she’s not working as an office manager at Grace Church at Willow Valley, she enjoys archery, reading, playing board games, and doing puzzles. Some of her other favorite things include the color pink, manatees, and cheeseburgers.

I enjoy watching baseball and digital illustration. I started serving as a youth leader in 2015. I have worked in several contexts teaching, tutoring and mentoring youth and always enjoy spending time with and encouraging young people. My role as a youth leader is to lead the 7th and 8th grade boys in small group.

Lauren is serving in the youth ministry by co-leading the 9^th and 10^th grade girls’ small group on Wednesday nights and coaching a Bible Quizzing team. Her favorite parts of serving are building relationships with the youth, having great discussions on Wednesday nights, and watching the youth grow. Lauren started attending CMBC in 2004 with her parents and seven siblings, and since then she has been involved in helping in children’s ministry, participating in the handbell choir, and being a Bible quizzer for 5 years. She graduated from Penn State with an Occupational Therapy Assistant degree and has been a one-on-one aide for a student with special needs at a school while she looks to become a pediatric occupational therapy assistant. In the summers, she enjoys serving children and adults with disabilities at Handi*Camp as a counselor/companion. Lauren also enjoys learning photography, teaching herself how to use Photoshop and video editing software, crocheting, sewing, playing games, hiking, and spending time with her family. More interesting facts about her are that the craziest thing she has ever done was design a book cover, which was then published, with no prior graphic design or Photoshop experience. And she is actually a pretty competitive person, and a whole other side of her comes out when playing games.

Emily Rishel serves in our youth ministry as a small group leader for Jr. High girls. She facilitates small group discussions, helps provide leadership at events, and is just generally available for our youth. Her favorite thing about serving as a youth leader is seeing how the students think and what they’re learning during small group discussions. Emily began attending CMBC with her family in 2009 (her parents are Darrell & Ladina Rishel) and has been involved in our church ministries in many ways – volunteering with VBS, a member of Converge, helping with Good News Club, and was very involved in youth group and youth missions trips when she was a student in our youth group. She graduated from Word of Life Bible Institute this year and is now a Title I Tutor at Paradise Elementary. Outside of work and church, she loves running, hammocking, coffee dates, playing piano, playing card games, spending time with friends, and eating ice cream and peaches, her favorite foods. Her dream vacation is taking friends to Youghiogheny Lake. She’s also gone cliff jumping (the craziest thing she’s ever done!) and rode her bicycle with her brother, dad, and grandpa from her house to Sarasota, Florida in 2014. We’re so thankful to have Emily in our church family and serving with our youth!

Mike Ritzman serves as a youth leader and co-leads small group for 11th-12th grade boys. His favorite part about being a youth leader is connecting with the teens and showing them Christ. Mike began attending CMBC in 1972, and during his time here he has been involved in several ministries, including teaching 4th grade boys, going on missions trips, participating in various community outreaches, serving on the development committee, and serving as an elder. He and his wife Melanie were married in 1989 and since then have had ten children. To relax he likes to hunt deer and turkey, camp, and hike.  Some fun facts about him are his favorite food is apple pie, he wanted to be an air force pilot when he grew up, and his dream vacation would be to visit Israel. The craziest thing he had ever done was on a missions trip to Ukraine when he allowed himself and his 12 year old daughter to be dropped off in the middle of a city at 3:00 in the morning. He didn’t know any of the people or how to communicate with them, and they didn’t even have an interpreter. They definitely had to trust God in that situation!

I enjoy spending time with our kids (most days, anyway!). God has opened doors for me to be a part of the CMBC youth ministry since 2004/2005 school year. I really enjoy the teens and watching them grow in the Lord, building relationships with them to encourage their walk with the Lord. The 11th and 12th grade girls are where you will find me on a Wednesday night for our small groups! Fellowship usually includes food. It's the same at our youth functions as well! I help organize food for our weekly events and other youth activities.

I have been a Youth Leader since 2004. As a painter, a father of 8 kids and a runner, I manage to stay busy.  I lead the 11th and 12th grade boys small group. I really enjoy interacting with the youth and trying to prove the old guy can keep up as I really love playing and watching all sports. Even more, I enjoy teaching and building into their lives and seeing them grow spiritually.

Clark Stoltzfus has been attending CMBC since 2017 and is involved as a youth leader – he spends time with our guys and occasionally teaches. His favorite thing about serving this way is teaching young men what it means to be a man of God and how to think through Scripture for themselves. Outside of church, he’s a farmer and an excavator. Growing up he wanted to be a pastor or missionary. To relax, he enjoys hunting and playing sports, and maybe eating his favorite food – crab legs! He also loves history. His dream vacation is hiking in the Rockies. He and his wife, Anna, were married in March 2019. The craziest thing he’s ever done (and we hope he won’t teach our youth to do this!) is set off fireworks out the back of a car, causing a window to shatter. Thank you for serving and being a part of our church family, Clark!

I have been serving the youth with my wife Sarah since March 2016. I enjoy riding dirt bike, spending time in the woods hunting, and anything that keeps me active and outside. I love the enthusiasm and passion our youth bring and strive to be a godly example and encouragement in their lives as they go through a stage of uncertainty and excitement in "growing up". As a youth leader, I help lead the 7th and 8th grade boys small group. It is my goal as their leader to help them grow in their knowledge of who God is and to help equip them to share this knowledge with their friends. College is a testing time for a young believer and it is crucial to help them gain the spiritual foundation to stand firm in their faith as they enter the "real world."

I enjoy anything outdoors, including running, biking, sports, and gardening. I have been serving as a youth leader since March 2016, and I assist in leading the 9-10th grade girls. I am excited as a youth leader to connect and build relationships with the students. It is my desire to be there to encourage them, pray for them, and help them grow deeper in their faith so they can seek to serve the Lord in all areas of their lives.
