The mountains, trees, rivers, and lakes that surround us in Concrete and beyond are captivating, but it’s the uniqueness of each person who visits that makes it special. We hope you bring all of who you are to Mount Baker Presbyterian Church, knowing you are welcomed and celebrated; this includes your race, ethnicity, neurodiversity, citizenship, sexual orientation, and gender identity.

In addition to helping transform the congregation’s ministry and economic model informed by their own Christ-transforming life, Kevin helped to create a property oversight committee in Northwest Coast Presbytery, with a vision of re-imagining and re-developing church properties for the future of the communities where they are located.
Danielle a 2024 graduate of The Seattle School of Theology & Psychology, with a masters in Theology and Culture - Community Development, has led them
to the early visioning stages for a new worshiping community/supportive housing/government/nonprofit/and for-profit mixed economy development in rural Skagit County with several partners. To expand the ministry of MBPC.
Together they have helped to organize and run multiple cold weather shelters., and have helped to bring medically assisted treatment to the community.
All of this community development has lead them to place in leadership where they work with multiple service providers on a regular basis. Engage with several different forms of government, from staff to mayors, to county commissioners. As well as law enforcement, prosecuting attorneys and defense attorneys - And a lot of this work has gained national attention through the Presbyterian Church USA
