Meet Conner Freerks!

Hey everyone! My name is Conner Freerks, and I’m excited to introduce myself as the new Campus Life Director for Youth for Christ at West Fork!

I’m originally from Clarksville, Iowa, and most recently lived in Story City, where I served as the Youth Ministry Leader at Immanuel Lutheran Church. I’ve also had the opportunity to serve in various roles at Riverside Bible Camp.

I’m incredibly excited for this next chapter and the opportunity to build relationships with students at West Fork. My hope is to meet students where they’re at and be someone they know they can count on. Most importantly, I want students to know that they are seen, known, and loved, and to have the opportunity to experience the hope and love of Jesus.

A little about me outside of ministry: I love going on road trips, cheering on the Iowa Hawkeyes and the Chicago Cubs, playing guitar, and spending time with family and friends.

I’m looking forward to getting to know the students, families, teachers, and staff at West Fork.
