Mike Denny

Middle School (7/8th Grade) - miked@valponaz.org

I have been on staff at VNC since January 2011. I grew up here in Valpo and even attended VNC since 4th grade. It is a blessing working in the church in which I came to know Christ and continue to grow in Him.

I attended and graduated from Olivet Nazarene University with a degree in Youth Ministry. It was at Olivet that I met my wife, Jessica. We were married the summer after graduation on June 13, 2009. That next school year, I began pursuing my Masters' degree in Youth Ministry also at Olivet. I completed my coursework and received my Masters' degree in August 2011.

Jessica and I have a wonderful, handsome son named Gavin. Gavin was born July 6, 2011. We couldn't be happier having him in our lives. He is such a blessing.

I am a sports fanatic. I play and watch almost every sport. Sadly, I am a Cubs fan and bleed Cubbie blue. I enjoy playing softball, flag football, and golf. I am constantly moving and staying active.
