Carolyn Holmgren

Youth Ministry Coordinator - carolynh@valponaz.org

In January of 2007 I started working with the youth at VNC. As Youth Ministries Coordinator I get to work behind the scenes of the VNC youth program by helping the youth pastor organize trips, fundraisers, and various events. The best part of my job is getting to know the students. I love their energy and enjoy watching them interact with each other. Watching them grow into mature young adults with a greater understanding of what God is all about has been a great blessing to me. I accepted God into my life as a teenager and it was the teens that brought me back to God. I've learned a lot from them. They never stop amazing me.

My husband Larry and I have been married since October of 1980 and have three children, Rachel, Jon, and Katie. In my spare time I enjoy working in the garden, doing art work, and practicing photography.
