MORE ABOUT THE FASTS
Ryan loves God, teenagers, and Disney! Top of his bucket list is to visit all 11 Disney Parks around the world and he’s more than halfway there. But it’s his love of God and teenagers that sets the trajectory for his life. He is passionate about students and their relationship with the Lord and has led hundreds of students on overseas mission trips, traveling to 30+ countries around the world. This has prepared him for his current ministry of walking onto campuses throughout the Portland metro area, partnering with local churches, to equip their students to launch gospel-centered movements.
Erin is the “behind the scenes” that makes everything work in the Fast household and ministry. Growing up in Portland she attended Lincoln HS. She recalls in her graduating class of 500+ that she only knew of a handful of Christians. Ministering alongside Ryan she now coordinates the details of our ministry, purchasing hundreds of pizzas annually for student-run clubs, facilitating small group discussions on campus and arranging travel logistics for Cru conferences and mission trips. Erin enjoys serving others by handling the logistics!
Ryan & Erin have been very happily married for 25+ years, live in NW Portland and are the proud parents of three kids - Micah, Abby and Zeke. They would like to invite you to partner with them in their ministry of training and equipping students. Currently they are praying for ministry partners who would consider making monthly or annual partnership commitments. Would you consider giving a monthly gift of $100, $250, $500 or some other amount that seems right to you?
"Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ." Philippians 1:6
