Jake Nold

Executive Director of Next-Gen

Hi, my name is Jake Nold and I’m the Executive Director of Next Gen Ministries here at Calvary. I know what you’re thinking, what a coincidence having the same last name as the lead pastor… But I assure you, that’s, at most, only part of the reason I got this job… I graduated from Bethel University with a degree in Missional Ministry. I married my wife, Meredith, in 2018 and in 2023, we welcomed our first child, Theo. 

 What brought you to Calvary?

I grew up at Calvary and grew up as a part of XStream. Calvary’s mission and desire to be a positive impact on the community has played a huge part in my life and was a big reason for why I wanted to come on staff here. 

What is your favorite thing about serving at Calvary?

One of my favorite parts about serving at Calvary is the people who I serve with. Youth Ministry can be tough, but I have a team of amazing leaders who love students with such passion. It’s amazing to see and it’s amazing to have a small part in. I also love that Calvary has a heart for the next generation and makes a point to find ways to impact them on a daily basis. You don’t get that at every church and I’m thankful it’s such an integral part of the Calvary culture.
