Teeg and his wife Amy were also a part of our Communications Team and provided valuable leadership. Teeg is known as a “people person” who is extroverted and energetic, with a passion for Jesus – and for fishing, hunting, and other outdoor activities. His favorite Bible verse is John 10:10.

His favorite Bible verse is Matthew 11:28-30. “Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
