Our Team

Austin Kammeraad

Director of Youth and Adult Discipleship

Austin comes to Lakeside with 7 years of experience working with Youth for Christ where he ministered to many students who were far from the Lord. He has a heart for relational ministry and a deep passion to see people grow in their faith. Austin is excited to take that experience and apply it to his position at Lakeside where he leads student ministries and adult small groups. Having already completed his degree in Youth Ministry from Kuyper College, he is presently working on a masters at Calvin Theological seminary as well. In his free time Austin loves to spend time with his wife Ellen and son Patrick, working with his hands, playing and watching sports–namely his beloved Detroit sports teams.

RACHEL VANDYKE

Custodian

Thanks to the tireless work of our church custodian, Rachel VanDyke, we are able to put the building of Lakeside to use week after week for kingdom causes.

From general cleaning, set up/tear down of event materials and a constant attention to detail, no corner of our building goes unnoticed or untouched. For those of you who enjoy a cappuccino or hot chocolate on a Sunday morning, she takes care of that, too! The Lakeside family is grateful for Rachel’s ability to keep the church running.

Should you notice a problem that would need attention, please do not hesitate to call the office or leave a note in Rachel’s mailbox.
