Kelly Clark
Kelly Clark is one of the most dominating, progressive halfpipe riders in history. She began setting the bar in 2001-02, at only eighteen years of age, when she won two Grand Prix events, the Winter X Games, the U.S. Open, and the Olympic Winter Games. As a professional snowboarder, she has competed all over the world and has become one of the greatest in her sport.
Following her gold medal win in 2002, Kelly had an encounter with God that forever changed her life. Now she lives and breaths for Jesus. All her family,
friends, and fans recognize her love and passion for Jesus. Kelly has seen God move supernaturally throughout her life as a believer, from healing her own body to healing others. Wherever she goes, God’s supernatural power follows her.
Mike Gehringer
At the age of nineteen, Mike had an encounter with God that changed his life forever. He was instantly delivered from a lifestyle of drugs and alcohol and soon after he attended Spirit Life Bible College. He then went to Mongolia to serve as a missionary for three years. While in Mongolia, he helped to pioneer the largest bible college in the nation.
Upon returning to the United States, Mike worked as a youth pastor for 2 years. He is now the Associate Director for Global Promise, a non-profit organization, and resides in Redding, California with his wife, Heather. The Lord has given Mike a strong passion for this generation. God has birthed a dream in his heart to see today's youth transformed by the love and power of God. It is his desire is to see them all equipped and living their lives to the fullest with God. Mike has been used around the world to ignite revival "fire" in people’s hearts and to bring them into a stronger relationship with Jesus.
Jake Hamilton's passion is to raise up a generation in revival, where the impossible is possible and we learn to tarry for the promises of God to be made manifest on earth. His powerful worship brings intimacy and breaks chains as he passionately draws people into the throne room of heaven where the King of Glory dwells with all the provisions of heaven. He has seen the power of the cross for salvation, healing, and deliverance as people have come into their right identity in Christ and begin to see the depth of love God has for them.

And Worship With
Patrick Paegel
When Patrick Paegel found himself in a place of hopelessness, God revealed Himself and changed his life forever. Since Patrick's life changing conversion experience, he started to express his thankfulness to God in worship.
Patrick has been a worship leader in Orange County, California working with ministries such as Soul Survivor, Vineyard and the Crystal Cathedral. Patrick has led with great worship leaders such as Matt Redman. He is now the worship leader at the Neighborhood Church in Bishop, California. He continues to write new music and has traveled to New Zealand, Mongolia and China leading worship.
At a very young age, God placed in Adam and Mary’s hearts the desire and passion for worship and leading others to encounter God’s love. Adam grew up in Wyoming, leading worship with his parents as a teenager. Mary grew up in Colorado and moved to Tanzania and Kenya, East Africa, where her parents are still full time missionaries. God put them in each others paths and now they live out their passion for worship together.
They now have two beautiful daughters and continue to grow in their anointing for worship, always seeking God’s face and deeper intimacy with Him. They love nothing more in their lives than to pour their love onto the Father and receive His love. They currently lead worship for the youth and School of Supernatural at Community of Hope Church in Casper, WY
