Dan began his position at Ottawa in June 2019. He and his wife Rachel have three children — Aubrey, Tyler, and Lauren. Outside of work, Dan enjoys woodworking, painting and finishing cabinets and furniture, spending time with his wife and kids, golfing, camping, and working in the garden. Dan enjoys working at ORC to be able to keep God’s house clean so that we may worship together in the best environment possible. “I am pleased with the amazing facility we have, and I am proud to represent ORC. Always on my mind is Philippians 4:13, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

At the last Consistory meeting, four young women confessed Christ as their Savior! Praise God!

The Bible makes it clear that there are a wide variety of “gifts” given to believers by the Holy Spirit, I Corinthians 12 and Romans 12. One of these gifts is the gift of “service” Romans 12:7. “Service” has a wide meaning, but it means “doing for others what they cannot do for themselves.” There will always be people who need help because their physical and/or financial circumstances do not allow them to do the tasks for themselves. Our members and neighbors look to the church for our help. That's where Tool Time Ministries comes in.

We have a diverse group of people attending our events; couples, singles, widowed, or some have a spouse that doesn't care to attend. We're sure you'll feel comfortable no matter what situation you're in. We offer an assortment of events that we enjoy. Some are outings and some are held right at Ottawa Reformed Church. If you can only come to a specific event or two, or all of them, we'd love to get to know you better as we enjoy fun and fellowship together. Wit & Wisdom usually meets on the 2nd Thursday of the month but watch our church bulletin, calendar, and/or the west bulletin board in the church's lobby for exact dates on upcoming events!

My name is Danielle and I am a lifelong member of Ottawa and have been involved in youth ministry for 8 years both as a volunteer and staff member. I have a love and passion for teaching students about Jesus and helping them grow deeper in relationship with Him. I strive to teach and model to students what God's Word says in the Great Commandment and Great Commission: Love God, Love Others, and Make Disciples! I am a wife and mother of two young boys. I enjoy creating new memories with my family, hiking, camping, traveling, thrifting, and anytime spent with family and friends because life is precious! My favorite verse is Proverbs 16:9 that whatever I do, God will direct and guide my path and I can trust in Him!
